The quantities follow this count.

1 small loaf, split spanish white bread
2 potato
3 eggs
1/2 onion
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

How to cook it

Cut a thick wedge of cold tortilla de patatas, the potato and onion omelette made the night before with the potato, onion and eggs above.
Split the loaf of bread and drizzle the cut sides with a little of the olive oil.
Set the wedge of tortilla inside the bread, pressing gently so it sits flat.
Wrap in paper, or cut in half and pack it for the walk to school or work.
Eat warm or at room temperature, the archetypal Spanish almuerzo, built on the tortilla already on the shelf at effort 2 rather than a second cook from scratch.
