2.Wipe pan out and heat the second measure of oil. Add potatoes and fry over a low heat until tender, but not coloured. Strain potatoes and reserve the oil.

3.In a large bowl mix the chorizo, onions, potato, egg and seasoning.

4.Coat the pan with a little strained oil and heat, then pour the mixture in. Cook over a low heat for 30 minutes or until the tortilla starts to come away from the sides of the pan. Cover with a dinner plate and flip tortilla carefully upside down onto the plate. Heat a little more oil in the pan, slide the tortilla back in and cook the other side for 5 minutes.
