I watch a channel called "Spain on a Plate" he is awesome as well. I am so glad that there are so many people sharing their cuisine and culture here on YouTube. Y'all bring so much positivity and happiness to a world that can seem so dark and chaotic at times.
Hi Chef James,
I like my tortilla with onions cooked less done but that is my preference. I bet the various versions and done-ness transcends the spectrum of our tastebuds. Would using different frying pans help? Such as a flatter pan help with the flipping but still get the round borders?
I prefer no onion and much less done… this one was eadible thanks to the onion 😅 is about taste… adding red bell pepper goes really well.
Congratulations on the tips you gave… they are 100% spot on.
I know this maybe a bit strange but I would like some Bacalhau in the tortilla
That tortilla was on the money 😋👍
Great tip with pouring the oil In the sink 👍
I make small ones like this once and a while for breakfast, and I like it a little burned myself, the extra burned flavour give it a little more than just potato's and onion, never made one this large but I might tomorrow morning, or day after…
Was just thinking what to make to dump some of my potato's before going shopping.
Oh and congrats on 50k Subs 😀👏👏👏!!!!
Magnificent looking Tortilla and great commentary as always Chef!!!
Can you make video guide about sauté onions garlic properly maybe dumb request but sometimes it just boils then you add heat burns or some other very basics stuff it would be interesting i don't know why but somehow i always fuck up onions it never looks same as any video anything
In a World where I thought Nick Digiovanni was the only YouTuber Chef I would Subscribe to. James has changed that! 👑🙌🏽
my favourite breakfast food. Unfourunatelly not healthy eating every day
My girlfriend and I watch cooking videos on a regular basis. You are by far el más simpático de todos AND you give great advice. We love your channel and we will try your croquetas de setas next. We tried a lot of different croquetas in Galicia and loved them. Maybe we have found a winner with your recipe. =)
And btw, you have far, far to few views for the high quality content you create! Keep going though, I hope you get the recognition you deserve very soon!
that to me looks like it would be banging with some cheese and a nice ham in it
Hola chef, another great reaction, and we learn a lot from your comments! I have a question for you about the olive oil, how come this Italian olive oil is so yellow in colour? They say that it is extra virgin, although by the colour it looks more like a sunflower oil! The consistency looks right though. In fact , when i was in Spain i also noticed some olive oils that were brown/yellow, and it was very surprising for a Greek guy like me, our extra virgin olive oil is always that deep green color here. Is it a matter of the type of olives used to make it? Muchas gracias!
Filmed just a few blocks from my place!
As a Filipino with some Spanish blood running through my veins, I am glad I subscribed to your channel. I am looking forward to the day you will do your Pote Gallego video and it will be the the 1st one on YoiTube in English for as far as I know they are all in Spanish. Sadly I do not speak Spanish for I was never taught the language.
Hi. Can you make calmari in an airfyer?
Please React to Asmongolds steak video , it will be a blast
Very enjoyable reaction video, James. Really enjoying your channel.
As always excellent analysis. Also totally agree about caramelizing the onions, if you are going to take the time to make this dish, take the time to do that.
I also thought "I bet this guy also has a Patatas Bravas video"….. Oh look, he does! Watching that next.
Barcelona is a wonderful city. I hope i run into you by accident there.
Perfect Spanish Omelette
would love to see vincenzo and chef james in one video. please make it happen. also with uncle roger. lol
I'd be the one asking for any type of sauce 🙂 this alone seems a bit dry for my taste. But as for the onions I love them so I'd definitely keep them there.
Nice video. I like the tortilla runnier. This is a bit overcooked for me. I have the impression they like it more overcooked in South/East and less cooked in the North.
Nice man. Great vid and one of my fave foods
It’s amazing how both, our language and food, is “assassinated” by “well meaning” foreign cooks. I am in my 80’s and pure breed Spanish and have never heard so much “complicated efforts” to make a SIMPLE tortilla espanola; love you for trying, though…
Man this reminds me way back in highschool in the 90's I saw a recipe for this in Spanish textbook. What I made, was just plain terrible. Not only was I a lousy cook in highschool, I think I translated the recipe badly and failed to follow instructions correctly. I'm also a big fan of cast iron/carbon steel as I feel they are so much safer than using any sort of non-stick cookware. That said, I would always keep at least one nonstick cookware in the house because to many egg recipes would be an absolute pain to do in anything but nonstick.
I can't watch it from the morning because I'm getting hungry like hell 😭
i love your recipes videos
this guy knows what he is talking about trust him about the onions, caramelized onions are amazing in tortilla
I find non stick pans both teflon and ceramic very easy to scatch, even if I use silicone spatula, one time I noticed on a fresh pan it got scratched by stiring freshly cracked pepper into my vegetables, maybe I just need a more quality ones? Not sure..
I'd so love this much more than the "spanish omelette" from the casinos here in Nevada where its litterally scrambled eggs with mexican chorizo and white cheese.
Question for you. Olive oil is quite expensive where I live and I could not use as much as they did affordably. Would I be able to use an air fryer for a similar result? Alternatively, could I parboil the potato, let it cool, then air fry? As well, what temperature do you recommend the oil be for the potato? Air fryer (if applicable). Thank you in advance
Another great review!
Chef James is the most professional Ive ever watch in my entire life. Keep up the nice videos sir.
Hey. Going away for 2 days to Barcelona next week. Is there any inexpensive places you could recommend that are worth to eat in? Thanks
I've watched Juan Carlos' tortilla video after watching yours and I loved them both. As you pointed out there isn't just one way to cook the tortilla so I'll probably give Omar Allibhoy's "Tortilla de patata sin freir" a try. The only thing that surprised me with Juan Carlos was the colander: my father always uses a skimmer to take the potatoes out of the pan and lets the oil cool down before pouring it into a "grasera".
