Making a good potato omelet is not an easy task. The first thing is that our products are of quality. Next, you have to get the proportions of egg and potato right. And then there are the eternal debates: with or without onion; little or very curdled. There is no possible solution and everything will depend on the taste of the cook or the diners.

Potato omelettes must be cooked with care, as well as with a lot of patience, especially when we have to turn them in the pan. There are those who resort to the traditional plate method. On the other hand, others keep double-sided pans in their cupboards, specially designed to be turned upside down.

Turning the potato omelet is a crucial step in the preparation of this typical dish of Spanish gastronomy. The key: when and at what speed to do it.

The task becomes more complicated when the tortilla gains in size, like the case that has gone viral on TikTok. In this case, there are many diners, so they prepare it in a large paella.

When it’s time to turn it over, choose to place a paella pan of the same size. Of course, they need the participation of another person for everything to go well. In addition, they use a type of iron that presses so that it does not move. With amazing ease and synchronization, they turn it around and it remains in one piece.

The users of this social network have been amazed by what they have just achieved. “Little is said about how well their turnaround has turned out,” says one. “The little skips from before are essential for the omelet to turn out well,” adds another.
