Apple Tortilla
Origin: Madrid, Spain
Source: Anonymous, 1920
Ingredients
- 3 apples
- 200 grams sugar
- 2 tablespoons manteca de vaca (beef lard)
- 3 eggs
Instructions
- Peel and core the three apples, then mince them finely. Place the minced apples in a heavy pan with the sugar and a small amount of manteca de vaca (beef lard). Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture becomes a smooth paste (masa).
- Beat the three eggs in a bowl. Add the apple paste to the beaten eggs and mix well.
- Heat manteca de vaca in a skillet and cook the mixture as you would a tortilla (a thick, set omelette), until golden and cooked through.
