Some Spanish Cookin !

One thing I want to learn is how to cook some traditional meals from here and go home and cook them so people can get a little taste! Yesterday I cooked one of the most traditional meals with my host mom, a Spanish Tortilla. It is like an egg cake with potato and small pieces of onions. What we did first was fry the potatoes and onions until they were very soft, they in a bowl we mixed 6 eggs with a little bit of salt and yeast. Once this was all mixed we then mixed it with the potatoes and onions. We put the in a frying pan and once one side was cooked we had to flip it over and cook the other side. It's really complicated to flip it because it is very thick, not like an omelet. You need to put a plate on top and flip over the pan and slide the tortilla back into the pan...the tortilla came out amazing, looked burnt but tasted really good.
