  I halved the ingredients as I only needed enough to serve two people and it worked fine. There was still a portion left over for lunch the next day. This is a really easy recipe and it really doesn't matter if you don't have the spinach- as long as you have eggs, potato and onion it would be fine as a plainer omelette. There's no end of things you could add to it instead. This recipe would be a great way to use up things like cheese, ham, mushrooms, peppers etc.

  I really enjoyed it - although I had heard that with correctly made spanish omelette the yolk should still be runny - but I'm not sure if that's true. I make this quite a lot, though I don't bother being too precise - I don't need to cook for lots of people, so I just put in much smaller amounts of everything. Sometimes i shove other stuff in as well like courgette, it's very versatile. Great recipe!

  I didn't have any spinach but left over cooked veg from Sunday lunch; cauliflower, peas, new potatoes and carrots. I also added a bit of grated cheese. Any veg cooked veg could be used. Yum Yum! Very tasty.

  This turned out quite well, easy to make and delicious. I will make this again, only next time I might parboil the potatoes as I found that 10 minutes was not enough to get them soft. I think you could use frozen spinach, maybe microwave it to thaw it and then squeeze out the excess water as with the fresh spinach.

  Carolyn, its as Karina says - microwave the frozen spinach on defrost until its thawed, then place it in a seive and push against the seive with the back of a spoon until most of the water is removed. Then include it with the rest of the ingredients. Your omelette turns out rather more green than with the fresh spinach, but if you're okay with that, then it doesn't really matter. :-)

  I would definetely parboil the potatoes as I ended up with burnt chips on the first attempt trying to get the potatoes soft. Otherwise it was lovely. Needs PLENTY of seasoning.

  Really enjoyed this. I parboiled the potatoes first as suggested and added griddled courgettes and chorizo.
