1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
-
2
In a pan heat water and potatoes to boiling and let simmer until potatoes are cooked through.
-
3
Meanwhile, in a frying pan or skillet (a caste-iron skillet would work perfectly for this) cook the chorizo until cooked through.
-
4
Once done, remove from pan and set aside to cool a bit and then slice into 1/8th-1/4 inch slices.
-
5
In the little bit of grease thats in the pan, saute the leeks until theyre softened and a bit caramelized.
-
6
Remove leeks and set aside.
-
7
Once the potatoes are done, run under cool water to stop cooking and cool enough to allow you to slice them without the slices falling apart.
-
8
Slice the potatoes lengthwise into slices that are about 1/8th-1/4 inch thick.
-
9
In the skillet heat up some vegetable oil you need just enough to make sure the tortilla doesnt stick when its baked.
-
10
Line the pan with a layer of the potato slices and sprinkle with salt.
-
11
Maintain the heat so that the potatoes are getting slightly browned as you add the additional layers.
-
12
Just make sure they dont burn.
-
13
Next spread the leeks on top of the potatoes.
-
14
On top of the potatoes add the sliced chorizo and top with the cheese.
-
15
Finally, pour on the beaten eggs making sure theyre covering your ingredients evenly.
-
16
Let cook over medium-low heat until you see the edges firming up and separating from the sides of the pan.
-
17
Slip pan into preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until eggs are set through.
-
18
While the tortilla is baking you can assemble the salsa by mixing the tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro/coriander and salting to taste.
-
19
When the eggs have set, remove the tortilla from the oven.
-
20
The top will be a bit runny because of the cheese but that is fine.
-
21
Run a spatula around the edges of the pan and flip over onto a plate.
-
22
Tortilla should come right out of the pan.
-
23
It looks a bit boring once youve flipped it out of the pan but dont let looks deceive you, this thing is full of flavor.
-
24
Let sit for a couple of minutes to firm up.
-
25
To serve, slice and plate and add a scoop of salsa to each portion.
