A potato omelet served in a glass? The deconstructed potato omelet was invented by Ferran Adrià, Paco Roncero's mentor, and it broke the gastronomic mold in the late 1990s. At that time, a new avenue of exploration was opening up with a focus on transforming the texture, temperature, and appearance of traditional recipes, without changing their ingredients and flavor.
This "omelet" has 3 layers. The first is a base of onion confit, on top of which is runny egg yolk, and it is all topped with a potato foam and a generous dash of extra virgin olive oil.
Despite the fact that this dish was, at first, rather controversial, it has become one of his most imitated and adapted recipes.
