The roasted egg symbolizes the Hagigah-offering which was offered up in the Temple. Another reason for an egg is that it symbolizes mourning for the destruction of the Temple. Round foods represent mourning (Rashi commentary, Genesis 25:30). See also:

What new meaning did Jesus give to the Passover meal?

Our Blessed Lord used the occasion of the Passover to institute the Lord's Supper: the most Holy Eucharist, commonly known as the Mass. The meaning that He gave to it came the following day, on Good Friday, when He offered His life on the cross for the redemption and salvation of all of us. Thus the meaning that He gave it was the sacrifice of Himself upon the cross. This meaning was always there as the old Passover meal re-presented the Passover in Egypt when God saved His people which was to foreshadow the great Passover when God saved His people through the wood of the cross.

Can you eat tortilla during passover?

It depends which kind of tortilla we're talking about. If you mean a Mexican tortilla (meaning a soft flatbread made of corn meal or wheat), the answer is no. If you're craving those during Passover, our family makes a Pesadic version by rolling cheese and vegetables up into a carefully soaked matzah. If, however, you meant a Spanish tortilla (meaning an omelet with potatoes and cheese ) then yes! We often make these ourselves during Passover. Chag Sameach
