Note:
Rocket is a very 'English' leaf with strong and peppery flavor and has been used in salads since Elizabethan times.
Tortilla is a kind of omelette in Spain. Ingredients added include sliced cooked potato and onion. But here in this recipe, we are referring to a tortilla, over in Mexico, which is a kind of flat unleavened bread.
Parsley is a ubiquitous herb in British cookery, which is also popular in European and Middle Eastern food.
