  1. go to receipezaar they have receipes from all over the world


  2. Potato omelet, with a lot of pre-fried potato cubes and onions. Churros (a kind of funnel cake) and rich, hot chocolate.

  3. Spanish tortilla (which is like an omlette, similar to the Italian frittata).

    Churros y chocolate

    Spanish breakfast is small and usually consists of a cup of coffee with a slice of toast and jam (almost exclusively apricot, for some reason), a pastry or churros. Churros are often served with chocolate instead of coffee.

    But my favorite Spanish breakfast is torrijas, Spain's take on bread pudding or French toast. Not as widespread as the above options, but a must if you can find it. For a better idea of what torrijas is, see the About.com Guide to Spanish Food's torrijas recipe.

    Freshly squeezed orange juice is popular and surprisingly common - even the smallest bar will invariably have an orange squeezer.  

    The Spanish are not the earliest risers in the world. If you have to leave before 8am you might find that nothing is open, though in Madrid many bars open at 7am. The situation is even worse at weekends.

  4. I live in Andalucia in southern Spain and most people seem to eat a light breakfast of coffee with either a croissant or bread or brioche or cake. The children tend to have cereal and a yogurt, although (usually on the weekends) people like to go out and have some churros (doughnut mixture but in a long strip, not in a circle) and hot chocolate. The old men tend to go for a shot of espresso ("solo" in Spain) with a shot of brandy! Toast ("Tostado") is also popular, with jam (USA: jelly). Hope this helps.

  5. Not sure if this is really eaten for breakfast. We had it while eating out once and it was wonderful, so I've saved this recipe, but have not had a chance to try it yet. Kind of like an omelet

    Tortilla De Patata

    Spain's version of fast food is served from street vendors. The tortilla de patata, or potato omelet, is sometimes called the national dish of Spain. It's always served during the fiestas that Hemingway loved so much. In order to make it easier to eat, they often serve it inside a bun. Tortilla in Spanish means little cake, not the kind of Mexican tortilla that we are familiar with in America. Try these served warm at home or chilled at a picnic.

    1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil

    1 large onion, cut into 1/3-Inch-thick slices

    Salt and ground black pepper to taste

    1 pound red-skinned potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch-thick slices

    6 large eggs

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    Heat the 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft and golden, reducing the heat as they cook, about 20 minutes. Remove to a large bowl. Heat the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil in same skillet over high heat.

    Add the red potatoes and cook until golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Toss potatoes often, separating the slices that stick together. Remove potatoes with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Set aside the pan with the oil in it. Add to the onions and mix together the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and ground black pepper to taste. Add the potatoes to the egg mixture and toss to coat. Return the skillet to high heat to heat the remaining oil in the pan. Add egg mixture and immediately reduce heat to low. Let the omelet cook for 3 to 4 minutes, undisturbed, until the bottom is golden and the omelet is almost set.

    Place a lightly oiled heat-proof plate upside down over the omelet and flip the skillet to turn the omelet over. Slide the omelet back into the pan to cook the second side. Cook until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Shake the omelet loose from the pan and slide onto a clean plate. Cut into 6 wedges and serve hot or at room temperature.
