  This is scrummy, and brilliant for picnics. I often use choritzo, instead of bacon and cheese. For a veggie version I recommend courgettes, red & yellow peppers and peas, which make it very colourful.

  I made this the day before a planned picnic in Epping Forest. A glorious day, and this went down a storm! Really easy to make (have always wanted to make a tortilla, never realised it was so easy) Really lovely and really easy!

  This is a great recipe. It works really well and tastes delicious hot or cold the following day. I kept everything the same as stated in the recipe above, except I only used 4 eggs rather than 6 and it turned out perfect. I'm planning to make it again, perhaps with some spinach or peppers instead of the bacon for a veggie option.

  This went down a storm for a hen picnic yesterday. The only thing was the potatoes were a bit al dente. I wonder if it's worth par boiling them first? I also added peperoni.

  Really loved this. Sliced the potatoes thinly and actually cooked them for nearer 20 minutes with the pan covered to make sure they were cooked properly - I don't like crunchy undercooked potatoes. Had it warm with a salad and cold in my lunchbox the next day when it was even yummier!

  This was delicious. The only problem was turning it over, but perhaps because my frying pan is too deep. I had to cook it for longer to get it set though.

  I used a quite a deep pan and flipping it was almost a disaster! I would recommend putting it under the grill instead, much less dangerous...tasted lovely though. Had to add an extra egg to save it from the flipping incident, but all glued back together fine.

  I agree about the potatoes-I always cook them for about 20 - 30 mins to make sure they're soft. This recipe also works well if you bake it in the oven for about 45 mins rather than using the pan and saves the trauma of trying to flip it! A great picnic recipe.

  See my blog for authentic Spanish tortilla! This one is a variation, a good one, but not the real deal!
