In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Mix in onions, ham and bell pepper(if desired). Season with salt and pepper. Fold in the cooled potatoes.
Heat remaining oil in a large pan over low heat and pour in the egg mixture. Cook, covered, until bottom is set and golden, 8-10 mins. Invert a plate on top of the pan and invert the pan and plate together so the tortilla is on the plate. Slide the tortilla back into the pan to brown (until golden)the other side, over low heat. Cook until set, about 4-5 minutes. Slide onto a platter and cut into wedges to serve.
