1

Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them into thin rounds.

2

Heat a bit of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

3

Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, for about 12 minutes.

4

Season the potatoes with salt and dried parsley (or other preferred spices).

5

In a bowl, drain the tuna and rinse it under water, then add it to a mixing bowl.

6

Mix the tuna with the cooked corn and mayonnaise to taste (about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons).

7

In a separate bowl, beat the 5 whole eggs.

8

Add half of the cooked potato mixture to the beaten eggs and mix well.

9

Pour the egg and potato mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly, and cover with a lid to cook on low heat.

10

Check the edges of the tortilla as it cooks, and when set, flip it using a plate to cook the other side until golden.

11

Repeat the process with the remaining egg and potato mixture to make a second, thinner tortilla.

12

Once both tortillas are cooked, layer the tuna mixture on one tortilla, adding any additional ingredients as desired (like tomato or bell pepper).

13

Top with the second tortilla and serve.
