Recipe: Spanish Omelette

So- I've decided to expand my repertoire to include a couple of my favourite g-f recipes!

Spanish Omelette is great hot, but also works really well as a picnic food (good alternative to sandwiches). I've ripped this recipe off a Nigel Slater book...

3/4 large eggs
2/3 peeled potatoes, grated
A clump of parsley
Some mint leaves
Olive oil
Salt and Pepper

To go in it:
5 strips of streaky bacon
A handful of cherry tomotoes
Oregano and rosemary

Firstly- prepare the filling. Halve the tomatoes and lay out in a baking tray, interspersed with the bacon. Put a decent amount of salt on the tomatoes (helps them to dry out) and some pepper. Sprinkle some oregano and rosemary over the whole lot and then a good drizzling of olive oil. Shove in the oven at 160 for an hour or so (until the bacon's gone really crispy and the tomatoes have dried out and shrivelled).

Beat the eggs in a bowl and then mix in the grated potatoes and mint and parsley. Heat some oil in a pan (about a 24cm pan should do the trick). Season the mixture well and then pour it into the hot pan. Whilst the mixture is still liquid, break the pieces of bacon up and add them along with the tomatoes. Cook over a medium heat for about quarter of an hour. Once you're happy it's cooked, brown the top off under a hot grill.

Great.
