Heat a teaspoon of oil. in a frying pan Spread it so that the base is well impregnated. When it is hot, pour in the beaten eggs stir them a little.
Wait about 15 seconds until they begin to set, then carefully and gently fold the tortilla in half.
Flip the tortilla to the other side.
When you see that it is to your liking, remove it from the pan and serve.
