Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes, about 700g
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten

Directions

  1. Pierce the potatoes several times with a fork and microwave on high for 10 minutes. Leave for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Peel away the skins, then grate the semi-firm potatoes into a bowl.

  2. Preheat the grill. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, add the potatoes and spread evenly in the pan. Fry for a few minutes until golden underneath. Pop the pan under the grill for 5 minutes to brown the top. Return the pan to a medium heat on the hob. Pour in the egg and cook for 5 minutes, until golden underneath. Put the pan under the grill again for 1-2 minutes until the egg is just set.

  3. Cut the tortilla into wedges and serve with carrot and pepper sticks and some Little Gem lettuce leaves.
