Andalusian courgette Tortillas


If you are a egg lover like me , you would definitely like this Courgette Tortillas . This is an Andalusian recipe which has a combination of  Zucchini and eggs.  For a change i added , boiled potatoes and  finely chopped Broccoli along with Zucchini in the tortilla and i had garnished with juicy Tomatoes .

Just by the name "Tortillas" , you might think you need tortillas for this dish . Nope ...
These Courgette Tortillas are very much similar to our basic Vegetable Omelette or Frittata . They are can be served  any time of the day . I served  these Tortillas for my breakfast . We loved them big time .



These Courgette Tortillas can be made two ways ; either by  oven method or stove top method. I made them on stove top.

Ingredients :

Eggs - 2
Zucchini - 1/2
Broccoli - finely Chopped ( Chop only the florets , leaving out the stem )
Chopped Onions - 1/4 Cup ( Finely Chopped )
Garlic -  1  clove ( Finely Chopped )
Oil to fry
Salt
Pepper
Boiled Potato - 1 ( small or medium )
Tomatoes - To Garnish

Instructions :

- Boil the potato and keep aside . Slice it really thin .
- Clean and scrape the skin on Zucchini and slice it thin and keep aside.
- Beat the eggs really well and keep aside .
- Add some oil in a pan , saute the onions and garlic till they turn golden brown.
-Add finely chopped Broccoli and saute for a minute . Sprinkle some salt and pepper .
- Now arrange the potatoes and zucchini alternatively and pour in half  the egg mixture .
- Close it with a lid and allow it to cook in a medium flame for around 5-7  minutes. Once the bottom of the tortilla is set . Carefully flip it over and cook on the otherside.
- Garnish it with Raw tomatoes sprinkle some salt and pepper .
- Serve them warm.
