    List of Ingredients




    2 red bell peppers
    olive oil
    5 to 6 large baking potatoes
    1 large onion
    6 eggs, divided use
    1/2 cup mayonnaise
    1/2 cup ketchup
    1 small can tuna
    salt and pepper

    Recipe



    Wash red bell peppers and rub with a bit of olive oil. Place in a foil lined small baking dish in a 350 degree oven.

    Bake until lightly blackened and soft.

    While bell peppers are baking peel your potatoes and onion and either grate them or chop in your food processor.

    Pour a good amount of olive oil in your very large skillet and add potatoes and onion. Salt and pepper well. Fry in oil until potatoes and onion are tender, stirring often to prevent sticking or burning. Drain well through a large colander.

    Put mixture into a large bowl and add 4 eggs and salt and pepper again.

    Put 1/3 cup olive oil into the pan, (I reserve what drains from potatoes and reuse it.) Then pour potato, onion, egg mixture back into pan. Fry while scraping mixture from the sides towards the middle of the "tortilla" often.

    When sides begin to brown take a large round plate or serving platter and carefully place on top of tortilla. Flip pan over with tortilla on plate. Pour a little more olive oil into the large skillet and carefully slide tortilla back into it. Cook scraping sides often until browned. Slide or flip onto serving platter.

    Cool slightly then spread mayonnaise on top of tortilla. Spread ketchup on top of mayonnaise.

    In the same large skillet pour a tablespoon of olive oil. Mix remaining eggs and drained tuna. Pour into skillet. Cook puling sides away towards the middle until set. using another large plate or platter slide egg and tuna out onto plate.

    Turn skillet upside down or use another plate and flip the tuna mixture back into skillet to cook second side. Cook until set and slide out on top of tortilla.

    Take cooked bell pepper and peel of the blackened parts. Cut into thin slices and toss with a drizzle of olive oil. Top the tuna mixture with red bell pepper.

    Serve warm or cold.
