Spanish Tortilla

Here's a super easy one. I made it all the time in college because it's super easy for one person and I still make it for our family. Remember Irantzu, our Spanish exchange student from eleven, yes that was ELEVEN, years ago? She made this for us one night.
1 potato, grated
1/4 of an onion, chopped
Garlic, fresh or powder will work
Pepper
2 eggs
Oil

Cook the grated potato, onion, and garlic in some oil in a frying pan until they are cooked (don't stir it around too much or the potatoes will get mushy). In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and pepper with a fork (you can add a little milk if you want it a bit fluffier). Pour the cooked potatoes into the egg. Put some more oil in your frying pan so it won't stick and then pour the whole mixture into the pan. Cover with an upside plate. After a few minutes, flip the pan so the whole thing lands on the plate. (I remember when Irantzu did this, half of it landed in the sink and she was so upset. So, hold on tight to the plate!) Slide it back into the pan so the other side cooks. Cover it again. Slide it out onto the plate, cut  like a pizza, and eat it.

For our family of three eaters, I do 2 potatoes and 4 eggs. It filled us up enough last night! Jasher went back for seconds!
