Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin half moons; slice the onion into half moons.
Heat the olive oil in a wide pan and soften the potatoes and onion for 18 minutes without mashing them.
Drain the potato mixture and leave 2 spoonfuls of the oil in the pan.
Beat the eggs with salt and black pepper, mix with the warm potatoes, and rest for 8 minutes.
Pour the mixture into the pan and cook over low heat for 7 minutes, until the edges set.
Turn the tortilla with a flat plate and cook the other side for 5 minutes.
Prepare the arugula and tomatoes, then slice the tortilla and serve warm or at room temperature.
💡 Tip: Use a flat plate when turning the tortilla; thin omelet pans common in Turkey can struggle to carry this thickness.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice Spanish tortilla at room temperature and make a breakfast or meze plate with arugula, tomatoes, and optional olives.
