Peel the potatoes and turnips and cut into small cubes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the potatoes and turnips to a deep pan with the oil. The potatoes and turnips should be lightly coated with the oil. Fry everything uncovered over medium heat for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onions and sauté them in a separate pan until translucent. Whisk the eggs in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Place the potatoes and turnips in a sieve and let the oil drain off. I always collect the oil for future use. Now mix everything with the eggs and fry the mixture with some of the collected oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes. You can use a spatula to lift the mixture from the side every now and then to check how brown it is. Once the eggs have started to set and the underside is lightly browned, place a plate on the pan and flip it over so the tortilla is on the plate. Slide the tortilla back into the pan and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side. The tortilla can still be slightly runny in the middle, depending on your taste. It can be enjoyed hot or cold.
