Heh... why am I not surprised that there are videos of this on YouTube, searching for "tortilla vuelta". The very first one shows the process (for those that didn't follow my flawless prose) pretty perfectly, and even includes the "border repair" step that I left out. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TR-oqqkKi4U&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TR-oqqkKi4U&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> I cannot claim to never have had a potato hit the floor or lost half a tortilla into the sink (over which the flipping should always be done), but my record for successful flips has been pretty high lately.

I guess I need to study under a tortilla master. I am a huge fan of the tortilla de patata, but have never managed to make one without screwing it up in the flipping process.

That pan-touching curlage is where your attention should be concentrated to determine when it's time to flip. Thanks guys. Good eye, Elsa.
