Omelette of Breadcrumbs
The omelette of breadcrumbs (in Spanish, tortilla de pan rallado) is a traditional recipe from Málaga, Spain. The origins of the recipe are uncertain and diverse. The Romans cooked an omelette shaped cake which they called ovorum torta. The omelette recipe "with milk", with honey and ground black pepper, collected by Apicius, reveals his age.
