Separate the whites from the yolks and whisk the whites hard until stiff peaks form. Add the yolks one by one, then add the salt, pepper and onion. Add the sliced palmito hearts and green pepper to the mix.

Melt the butter in a pan over a low flame. Pour the mix in the pan, cover and let it set up for 3 to 4 minutes. After that, turn the tortilla over and wait until it browns evenly.
