Spanish Breakfast Tortilla
with Cilantro Crema
Tortilla española, not to be confused with a Mexican tortilla, refers to a dense potato omelet enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or as a tapa in Spain. Chickpea flour stands in for the expected egg, and smoked paprika adds rich flavor to this family-style, bougie brunch superstar.

INSTRUCTIONS
Microwave potatoes in medium microwave-safe bowl until fork-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. In separate medium bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, 1 cup water, ¼ tsp salt, and a pinch of pepper.
Melt butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, onions, just ½ tsp paprika, and ¼ tsp salt, and cook until well-browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Add chickpea batter and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium and cover with lid. Cook, undisturbed, until edges are brown and top is set, 5 to 8 minutes. Flip cooked tortilla out onto clean cutting board.
Cut tortilla into quarters and transfer to 4 serving plates. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with cilantro crema and hot sauce.
