instructions
    1

    Begin by cracking the 4 eggs into a large mixing bowl. Whisk them gently until they are well mixed.

    2

    Add 1 cup of yogurt to the eggs and mix until fully combined. This will give your tortilla a creamy texture.

    3

    Season the mixture with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper, adjusting to your taste preference.

    4

    Chop 2 tablespoons of parsley finely and fold it into the egg and yogurt mixture.

    5

    In a non-stick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot but not smoking.

    6

    Pour the egg and yogurt mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly across the pan.

    7

    Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, gently shaking the pan occasionally to prevent sticking, until the bottom is set and lightly golden.

    8

    Carefully flip the tortilla using a plate: place a plate over the skillet, flip the skillet upside down, and let the tortilla slide back into the pan to cook the other side.

    9

    Allow the second side to cook for another 5 to 7 minutes until it is also golden and fully cooked through.

    10

    Once done, slide the tortilla onto a serving plate, let it cool for a few minutes, and slice into wedges.

  • Be sure your skillet is well-greased to prevent sticking.
