La Isla Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura (pronounced: [fweɾteβenˈtuɾa]; loosely translated as "Strong Winds" or a corruption of the French term for "Great Adventure")^[1] is one of the Canary Islands, in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa, politically part of Spain. At 1,660 square kilometres (641 sq mi), it is the second largest of the Canary Islands, after Tenerife. It was declared a biosphere reserve by

Population

The island has a population of 74,983.^[9] Throughout its long history, Fuerteventura has suffered from a population decline due to the economic situation and the climate, which have made it into a desert island. However, the development of tourism during the 1980s has caused the population to grow year on year since then, doubling it in a little less than a decade.

I visited this beautiful Island for 9 days. It has the most interresting moutains and endless beaches. I travelled from Morro Jable all the way trough the middle to the highest point and to the north to Corralejo, where i could see the Island Lanzarotte very near. 

Roads are carved in to the mountains and on the other side of Costa Calma is the famous beach Cofete.

Ones a year we celebrate Dia De Canaria, with lots of folklore music and dancing. There is a parade on the street as well.
I love the typically dresses and the music.

Tortilla español

This is my first recipe about a typically Spanish dish.
Here the tortilla can be eaten in many ways. In a bocadillo ( sandwich ) for dinner accompanied with other dishes.
 This is the finish Tortilla

 
Ingridients for a typical Spansh Tortilla
Eggs
Patatos,
capsicum red or green
(jamon cerrano) or traditional ham,
Onions
( this tortilla has mushrooms as well but it is not traditional )
Olive Oil, salt
Step by step cooking the tortilla

·first saute the onions and capsicums just covered with olive oil on a very slow heat for about 30 minutes. stirring occasionally.

In the meantime peel patatos, and cut in to small cubes, deep fry them untill crunchy

In a large bowl beat the eggs (the amount depends on the ingredient's )  I used 4 to 5 eggs.

Add the cooked patatos, drain the excess olive oil from the onions add to the patatos. Cut the ham add to the mixture.

Heat just enough Olive Oil in a non sticking pan. Add the mixture and shake it from time to time so its not sticking. cooking time depends how much you like the eggs cooked. 

Cover the pan with this plastic plate, it has a handle  easy to hold, turn the pan over. Ones the tortilla is on the plate, slide it back to the pan and cook it to your desire.

BUEN PROVECHO ¡¡¡¡¡¡
