Potato tortilla (Esti's fabulous recipe)

1 medium potato chopped into 1/2 inch chunks and salted quite a bit
(1-2 tsp, tortilla will be very bland if you forget this step)
1/2 onion chopped as above)
1/2 green or red pepper

medium heat, slowly (deep)fry potatoes for about 3 minutes in 1-2 cups olive oil (depends on pan*, potatoes should be mostly covered). Add onion and peppers and continue to fry until potatoes are slightly browned and soft in the middle (be patient). drain and store oil somewhere else (can use oil for other recipes)

whisk 3 eggs. add the drained mixture into eggs and pour back into hot pan. *use a smaller pan that will make the mixture about an inch thick and is smaller that your plate because once the eggs are no longer runny you have to flip it over by placing a plate over the pan and sliding it back in.

cook until eggs are fully cooked. Serve with pimento slices on top.
this is delicious hot or cold.
