Spanish Style Plantain Omelette on {Latina Column}
It’s unbelievable that it’s almost been two years since I first published this post on a classic Spanish breakfast: the chunky omelette.
The post, which you can read here, was such a hit, I had several people email me with questions for suggestions on variations of the cheese to use; and I featured it in one of my newsltters. Since then, I’ve made this ultra delicious and robust tortilla enough times to yield a farm of chickens—-that’s how many eggs I’ve used! I’ve played around with the cheeses and have determined that smoked gouda, smoked mozzarella and asiago are the best options!
For my column on LATINA this week, I decided our readers need to know about it and experience the yumminess of this easy-to-make omelette. It will leave you (new readers of FE) and them, wanting to practice your skillet flip and even ponder a trip to Spain!
Read today’s column and get the recipe on LATINA, here!
¡Buen Provecho!

Thatz omelet is gorgeous! A yummy combination!

Delicioso! I’ve got to try tortilla one of these days with platanos. Congrats on Latino gig.
Oh, that looks so delicious! I like finding new ways to use the plantain besides simply fried.
I love Spanish-style tortilla (omelette)and have a semi sweet tooth, so a tortilla de platanito maduro is hard to resist. How about posting something on a traditional tortilla with papas y cebolla (onions and potatoes)… with just a dash of cheese? Yummy!!
congrats on the feature, great recipe, spanish tortillas are one of our favs, especailly savory ones…onions, papas, choirzo and cheese..yum

Rosa: oh and more than gorgeous!
JoanNova: Right! You’ll love it. I hope you let me know how it goes when you do make it.
Lori: Oh, girlie, sooo many different ways you can use plantain… grilled, roasted, baked, in the omelette, as cheese balls, etc…
David: YES! I need to make one of mom’s classic tortilla’s with papa and cebolla… been a long time since I’ve had one.
Sweetlife: Oh thanks! I’m enjoying being the food columnist. And a savory tortilla can’t ever be wrong! I hope you will try this one!
This looks really good. I’ll have to go to the farmers market to to get some ingredients but I’m making this since I love omelette.
I remember this! One of my favorite things to have for breakfast since you put me on.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Seriously my ALL TIME FAV. But not for breakfast, I prefer it with a nice plate of Rice with Black beans and Picadillo. You guys dont understand how many plates I can KILL of that stuff. lol I LOVE IT
