Flan (creme caramel)

Crème caramel, flan, or caramel custard is a rich custard dessert with a layer of soft caramel on top, as opposed to crème brûlée, which is custard with a hard caramel top.

Recipe

Tortilla de patata (Spanish potato omelette)

added by shmen7 19th January 2012

Spanish Omelette, Tortilla or Spanish Tortilla, they are all the same food. A slow cooked, thick omelette with potato filling. So simple but oh so delicious! As far as authenticity is concerned, the tapas bars in Spain would have you believe that the only filling to the Tortilla is potatoes and onions. But I am certain that Spanish folk added a few 'in season' vegetables to the mixture so feel free to experiment with the basic, delicious recipe. The Spanish Omelette is a very versatile dish because it can be served hot or cold and I guarantee that it is tasty either way.

My Mum made me this years ago, I've loved it every since, I've made it in a few restaurants I've worked at and it always goes down a treat. I hope you all have a try and enjoy it
