Pincho is the Spanish name given to appetizers, which are usually a piece of bread with something on top. There is a wide variety of options to make pinchos and the most famous is the tortilla pincho. Although the preparation of this tapa is very simple, we will teach you step by step how to make an authentic tortilla skewer in case you have any questions.

Ingredients to make Tortilla Skewer:

  • Tortilla
  • 4 units of Potato
  • 4 units of Egg
  • 1 unit of Onion
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 pinch of pepper
  • 150 milliliters of oil

How to make Tortilla Skewer:

  • The first step in preparing this traditional Spanish tapa is to make the potato omelette. For them, cut the potatoes into slices and wash and julienne the onion.
  • Then, fry the potatoes and onion separately and then mix everything with the eggs and season to taste. Cook the omelette in a traditional way and if you have any doubts, you can consult the potato omelette recipe.
  • While the tortilla rests, cut slices of bread. Make more or less thick cuts, about 5 centimeters wide and spread with tomato and oil, as if you were making tomato bread.
  • With the bread ready for the skewers, the next step will be to cut the tortilla into pieces, they do not have to be all the same, the important thing is that they are not larger than the slices of bread.
  • Finally, assemble the tortilla skewers by placing a piece of the tortilla on each slice of bread, already spreading with tomato, and hold it with a wooden toothpick.
  • If you want to give these delicious tortilla skewers a gourmet touch, you can add an olive or a strip of pepper on the tortilla, also skewered with the same toothpick.
  • Potato omelette skewers are a classic in bars throughout Spain and if you want to do something different I recommend you make a different omelette for your skewers such as the potato, onion and bacon omelette or the potato and courgette omelette.
