About Spanish omelet

The Spanish omelet, or "tortilla española," is a classic dish from Spain made with simple yet wholesome ingredients: eggs, potatoes, and onions, often cooked in olive oil. This traditional recipe embodies the essence of Spanish cuisine—comforting, hearty, and flavorful. Rich in protein from the eggs and complex carbohydrates from the potatoes, it provides sustained energy. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, making it a nutritious option when consumed in moderation. The absence of processed ingredients keeps it relatively clean, though its caloric density can increase if large quantities of oil are used. Served hot or cold, the Spanish omelet is versatile, enjoyed as a breakfast, tapas, or snack across Spain and beyond. While its simplicity contributes to its health benefits, portion control is key to balancing its calorie intake with overall dietary goals.
