Cheese and Ham Salami Tortilla: A Versatile Delicacy Discover my recipe for cheese and ham salami tortilla, a dish that blends tradition with innovation. This recipe comes from my cousin in Suceava, but I’ve made some improvements to turn it into a delicacy you will adore. Perfect for lunch, dinner, or even a delicious snack, this tortilla will captivate you with its flavor and aroma! Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Total time: 50 minutes Servings: 4 Ingredients - 6 large potatoes - 10 slices of ham salami (preferably thicker) - 3 eggs - 1 yellow bell pepper - 1 red bell pepper - 1 red onion - 3 cloves of garlic - 100g cheese (grated) - Salt and pepper, to taste - Oil for frying (about 500ml) How to prepare 1. Preparing the ingredients Start by peeling the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, like for French fries. This will help them cook evenly and quickly. Peel and julienne the red onion, and dice the bell peppers. Mince or crush the garlic. 2. Frying the potatoes In a deep skillet, add a generous amount of oil (about 500ml) and let it heat up. When the oil is hot, add the sliced potatoes. Cover the skillet and let them fry over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and golden (about 15-20 minutes). 3. Adding the onion and garlic Once the potatoes are softened, add the onion and minced garlic. Let them cook together for another 5 minutes, until the onion becomes translucent. 4. Adding the salami and bell peppers Now it’s time to add the slices of salami and the diced bell peppers. Mix everything well, cover the skillet again, and let it cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, until the peppers soften slightly. 5. Seasoning Add salt and pepper to taste, being careful not to overdo the salt, as the salami may already be salty. 6. Preparing the eggs In a separate bowl, beat the 3 eggs. Once the potato and vegetable mixture is ready, pour the beaten eggs over it, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Let the tortilla fry on low heat for about 5 minutes. 7. Flipping the tortilla To flip the tortilla, use a large plate. Place the plate upside down, turn the tortilla onto it, then let it slide back into the skillet to fry on the other side. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until it’s nicely browned. 8. Finishing and serving When the tortilla is ready, flip it onto a serving platter and sprinkle the grated cheese on top. Let it cool slightly before cutting it into portions. This tortilla is delicious both warm and cold, making it perfect for picnics or family meals. Useful tips - Vegetarian option: You can omit the salami and add more vegetables, such as zucchini or mushrooms. - Serving: This dish pairs well with a light green salad or yogurt and dill-based sauces. - Storage: The tortilla keeps well in the fridge, covered, for 2-3 days. You can reheat it in the microwave or in a skillet. Nutritional benefits This tortilla is an excellent source of carbohydrates from the potatoes, protein from the eggs and salami, and vitamins from the vegetables. It’s a balanced meal that will provide you with the energy you need for the whole day. Frequently asked questions Can the tortilla be frozen? Yes, you can freeze the tortilla, but it’s recommended to wrap it well in plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. Can I use a different type of meat? Sure! You can experiment with different types of cold cuts or even cooked meat, like chicken or turkey. Why is it important to flip the tortilla onto a plate? This method helps achieve even cooking and prevents the tortilla from breaking. Enjoy this simple and delicious recipe that will make you come back to it every time!
