  This is really tasty as a base...I added red onion, beans and mushrooms and seasoned well. I actually left out the cheese though. Yum!

  Made this with everything we had left in the fridge so roasted peppers, mushrooms, red onions instead of leeks, chorizo and of course left over potatoes. Very easy to make (but did break it a bit getting out of the pan!) and tasted great, left overs were had for supper the next day.

  I've been making this a lot, as it's very easy and tasty- loved by all who have tried it. I've found that the tortilla is best cold and sandwiched inside fresh crusty bread, such as french stick.

  Loved this! Added 1/4 red pepper and a couple of rashers of chopped bacon to the leeks and reduced eggs down to 5, although 4 may have been enough. I cut potato into slices first and then boiled them until soft. Also, a nice mature cheddar is needed. Really lovely hot and cold for supper - will definitely make again.

  Made it without cheese, raw potatoes in smaller pieces, and only 3 eggs. I thought it was going to be awful, but it came out amazing!

  This was another hit in our house, had to cook the potatoes for this dish and let cool slightly, used a couple of med onions instead of leeks. Also didn`t have sage so just sprinkled in some dried parsley( I know!), and a good sprinkle of paprika, and seasoned well. Very easy to make, and a good dish to make if you have not much in your pantry/ fridge. Kids have taken some in their lunch boxes today. Will definitely be making again, great for a quick meal after work.

  An easy to follow recipe, although needed a little more cooking time than it said. The result was light and tasty - will defintely be making this again and it'll be easy to adapt with other ingredients.

  Would have been 5 stars but the recipe was not as clear as other recipe's because of the potatoes needing to be cooked first only being mentioned in the ingredients list and I clearly didn't pay enough attention! Just make sure you do cook the potatoes before you realise you need them - I clearly missed this and then had to add some water to the pan to help the cooking process along! I made it for my mum for tea as I had cooked another recipe for my brother and I and she wanted more! I used some red onions and garlic instead of leek and added some red kidney beans and peas. Also used Emmental cheese as had run out of cheddar but that probably added to the flavour and I must say it smelt wonderful - could really smell the Sage even though it was only dried Sage! Definitely needed some colour to it, I think next time I make it I will add some mushrooms and peppers.

  Made this quite a few times, although I use spring onion rather than leek, think it would be a bit bland with leek. Think the cheese being part of the egg mix and the sage helps this to taste good. Today didn't have much in so I whipped this up with normal onions and sweetcorn, and used emmental as I'm in France so there's a lack of cheddar...looking forward to eating it!

  Made this this evening for the first time, but, not the last. Next time I'll add a little mustard to the mix.
