"Hi I'm chef Rainer Wickel and I'm here today with Expert Village.com well we're on to our next step into making tortilla de patatas. Now I need to go over with you all the ingredients that we need to make this dish. Of course the very first thing that we need is 4 eggs, we're going to scramble these eggs and this is you know the base of this dish. And you know I like using cage free organic eggs personal preference of mine but thats what I'm using today. We also need 2 potatoes now get 2 large potatoes or 3 small ones what you really need is about 3 lbs of potatoes because you have about an even mixture of eggs and potatoes in this, because after all this is a potato omelet. We also need an onion I'm only going to be using about 1/2 of onion for this dish. We don't want that over whelming onion taste to it we just want this for flavoring for the dish, so 1/2 onion will do. And we need salt and once again for flavoring I like using sea salt I always cook with sea salt, it's just healthier and I think it has a better taste, it blends a whole lot better with food. And we need olive oil, I like using extra virgin olive oil it's nice light olive oil and it gives it a really, really good flavor and these are all the ingredients that we need to make tortilla de patatas."
