2 Eggs and 2 Potatoes: Tortilla de Patatas Dinner

Two potatoes and two eggs are the whole shopping list, and the result slices like a cake. The tortilla de patatas is built on patience in the right places: 3 mm potato rounds soaked so they fry separately, dried so they fry at all, cooked completely soft with onion and garlic, then folded off the heat into eggs seasoned with smoked paprika, thyme and dill — one egg per potato, the ratio that stretches two eggs into a dinner for the table. Ten minutes under a lid, one committed flip (dar la vuelta, as Spain says), five more minutes, and the layers set into gold. Alongside it, the video’s surprise: a Spanish tomato refresher — a drinkable gazpacho cousin, blended with cucumber and ice, strained silky and served cold to balance every warm, smoky bite.
