Recipe: Tortilla for brunch, lunch or a snack

Tortilla Recipe Rupp

This dinky little tortilla was inspired by a visit to Waitrose of all places.  Whilst wandering around I spied a mini fry pan that I thought would be perfectly sized for a brunch tortilla.  So after badgering Mr Foodie that we really needed another piece of kitchen equipment, off, we went home with the said pan.  They are on offer for £4 at Waitrose at the moment.

As it is a tortilla, you can really put anything you want into it.  Rummage through the fridge for any odds and ends which need using up.  With this one, I used some Rupp smoked cheese (see my visit here) which was ready slices and some left-over spring onions and potatoes.  Served with some Scottish Scotty Brand tomatoes and you have a tasty brunch for two.
