    "I think this recipe is basically a good one, but it could do with a pinch of salt and some more ground ginger as even though I used a good quality fresh ground ginger there just wasn't quite enough ooomph to it."

    Tested

    "Just tried making this upto the sugar stage in the food processor, I added sultanas and found it needed about 3-4 minutes extra cooking. It made 8 large perfect scones, Thanks Jane, I have been looking for a really quick, simple and delicious scone recipe for years. xxxx"

    "I too agree with the above comments, in all the cities of Spain that I have eaten Tortilla Espanol, it has never had Parsley in it, can't be too sure about the pepper, though I don't recollect there being any. I also beleive the Spaniards use a lot more olive oil than 150 mls, and then they keep whats left over for the next tortilla and so on. They also have special double pans that they use to eliminate the need for sliding it onto a plate, however these pans are purely convenience, but next time you are on holiday in spain, it might be worth your while buying a double tortilla pan if you make this often. Torilla espanol is fabulous when made properly and this recipe is very close. xxxx"
