Omelet with potato and (usually) onion. Sometimes it will have prawns, mushrooms or squid inside and it will occasionally be served with cheese on top.

Food in Spain

Where to Try Tortilla Española: Any bar in the country! A cafeteria in Spain that doesn't have a tortilla on the bar just doesn't feel right.

Tortilla is usually vegetarian and features in my list of the best Vegetarian Dishes in Spain.

Next: Gazpacho (Cold Tomato Soup or Liquid Salad)
