00:01You won't see this one coming, a Spanish potato omelette made entirely in the microwave.
00:08Hey, today we've got a recipe that might surprise you, a Spanish potato omelette.
00:14Or papas made entirely in the microwave.
00:17We are not even going to touch the pan.
00:20First step, optional, because you already know some people like it with onion and some without.
00:26Look, I'm going to make it with onion so you can see for yourself.
00:29I chop half of it.
00:31I also take three medium potatoes in.
00:33As you can see, I peel them.
00:36With the same potato peeler, I do this trick.
00:39Taking off, there it is, thin potato slices.
00:44I do the same, potato after potato.
00:48And in the end, I have this bowl.
00:50I add a generous drizzle of oil and salt to taste.
00:55I'm going to mix all this together really well.
00:58What I'll do is toss it around until I see that everything has a shiny look to it.
01:03Simple as that.
01:07Now I take the bowl, which has to be microwave safe.
01:10And this is what I'll use for the whole recipe.
01:15We add them, set it for five to six minutes, and once time is up, out it comes.
01:22Use a kitchen towel or an oven mitt so you don't burn yourself.
01:27Meanwhile, you can get the eggs ready.
01:29I use four.
01:31I add salt to them, and this is also optional.
01:34I like to add a bit of garlic powder.
01:36I beat all of this really well with a fork until it has that typical texture for an omelet,
01:41making sure it's nicely mixed.
01:44I also take the time to grease a container with oil where I want to make the omelet.
01:48But in my case, it has to be...
01:54I mix the chopped onion from the beginning with the potato mixture we just cooked in the microwave
02:00and with the egg mixture I just made.
02:05We're going to stir all of this until we get a fairly uniform texture,
02:10making sure everything is really, really well mixed.
02:14That detail is very important.
02:18And as for what's left, I think you can guess.
02:22Take this, pour it into the mold we prepared, and cook it again in the microwave.
02:28Always and throughout the recipe, microwave at maximum power to save a bit of time.
02:33Smooth it out well so the omelet looks nicer.
02:37And like I said, time to cook.
02:39In my case, it takes about 11 minutes.
02:42It could take 12, 13, 10, depending on your microwave's power.
02:50And remember to cover the omelet a bit on top.
02:53That trick will make it set even better.
02:56Quick and easy.
02:57In my case, like I said, just 11 minutes.
03:00And as you can see, the omelet is just right.
03:03I remind you that you have to use something to hold the container.
03:07Otherwise, you'll burn yourself.
03:09Put the plate you want to serve this beauty on over the top.
03:13And flip it over to unmold it.
03:16Look at this fantastic omelet we just cooked in the microwave.
03:20And it looks absolutely amazing.
03:22Doesn't it look appetizing?
03:24Of course it does.
03:26Look, look, look, look at how great it looks.
03:29A perfectly set, easy, delicious omelet.
03:32Everything is clean.
03:34What a wonder.
03:35The thing is, sometimes you can cook delicious things right in the microwave.
03:39We'll just not used to it.
03:41Look, a little piece.
03:43And another one.
03:49Unutimate omelet.
03:50Wanted to taste even better than use good ingredients.
03:53Good potatoes, good eggs, good onion.
03:56Nothing else.
03:59Easy and delicious.
