This recipe is wonderfully versatile, too. Let’s dive into this Smoked Ham Tortilla with Chargrilled Peppers!

1. Preheat the grill to its highest setting. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan and gently fry the potatoes and onion for about 20 minutes, until golden and soft.
2. Whisk the eggs lightly together in a jug with the smoked paprika and the parsley.
3. Heat a 23cm non-stick frying pan then tip in the potato and onion mixture, followed by the ham and peppers and a little seasoning.
4. Pour the egg mixture over, moving the ingredients around with a fork before leaving to gently cook over a medium heat for about 10 minutes until the egg is just set.
5. Finish cooking the tortilla under the grill for 2-3 minutes until golden. If serving cold, leave to stand in the pan then cut into wedges. Serve with some continental salad leaves.

Cook’s tips: To make the tortilla the traditional Spanish way, cook the onion and potato in 150ml olive oil then drain off the excess. This adds a lovely sweetness to the finished dish.
