Basque Style Tortilla With Tuna And Tapenade Recipes

BASQUE-STYLE TORTILLA WITH TUNA AND TAPENADE

Steps:

• Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and chop peppers. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; sauté until golden, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and next 4 ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer 25 minutes to blend flavors. Stir in roasted peppers. Increase heat and boil uncovered until juices evaporate, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Discard bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in bowl to blend. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large deep nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Add half of eggs; cook without stirring until edges begin to set, about 1 minute. Spread pepper mixture over. Sprinkle tuna over; spoon tapenade over. Pour remaining eggs over. Place in oven and bake until eggs are set, about 12 minutes.
• Run rubber spatula around sides of tortilla to loosen. Slide out onto platter. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SPANISH TORTILLA WITH TUNA RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until soft and allow them to cool. Sauté the chopped onion and olive oil and allow to cool. (You may also sauté carrots or other vegetables or peppers to enrich the recipe.) In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and black pepper. Add the tuna, cooled potatoes, and onion, and mix gently. Coat a large pan with olive oil and add to low heat on the stove. Turn heat down to medium-high and add the egg, potato, tuna mixture. Continue to cook over low heat until underside is golden and top begins to set. Use a spatula to loosen the bottom and spoon onto a plate. Turn the pan over on the plate and flip over to finish cooking the top side (like you would a frittata or omelet). Plate and cut into wedges. Serve warm or cold. OPTIONAL: Serve with a bit of mayonnaise, ketchup, or aioli.
