Egg tortilla is a simple and versatile dish originating from Spanish cuisine, often referred to as "tortilla española" or Spanish omelette. Traditionally made with eggs, thinly sliced potatoes, and onions, it is cooked in olive oil and seasoned with salt to create a thick, hearty omelette. Sometimes, additional ingredients like bell peppers, spinach, or cheese are included for extra flavor. This dish is a good source of protein from the eggs, while potatoes provide complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber. Olive oil contributes healthy monounsaturated fats, promoting heart health. However, its nutritional profile can be influenced by ingredient proportions and preparation method. Using less oil and adding more vegetables can make it a lighter option. Egg tortilla is popular for its simplicity and balance, often served as a meal, snack, or tapa. While delicious and filling, moderation is key for those monitoring fat and calorie intake.
