Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 87kcal
Ingredients
- 1 large potatoes peeled cut into bitesize pieces & boiled until tender*
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ small white onion roughly chopped into small pieces
- 2 whole garlic cloves finely minced
- 7 oz vegan chorizo or 200 grams
- 1 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- 4 medium medium eggs lightly beaten (you can add up to 6 if desired)
Instructions
- If you're going to use the potatoes start here, if not skip to step 2. The first step after chopping up the potato bits, it’s to boil them until they begin just to soften. Drain and set aside.
- In a very large pan heat up the oil then add the chopped onion. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and sauté until soft and translucent.
- Once the onion is nice and soft you can add the minced garlic. Sauté for a couple of minutes. Stir now and then to prevent it from burning.
- Now you’re ready to add the vegan chorizo. Mix until it’s completely combined with the cooked onion and garlic. Sauté until the chorizo is nice and crispy. If you don’t like it a little crispy then just cook for about 8 minutes or less.
- Now you’re going to add the boiled potato pieces, if using them. Mix until well combined with the chorizo mixture. Once everything is well combined you can sprinkle in some more salt. Give the ingredients another good mix. Sauté for 5 more minutes.
- While the chorizo is cooking with the potatoes or on it's own, crack the eggs into a medium bowl and lightly beat.
- Then pour into the pan and stir until well combined. Allow the egg to cook and set until you're desired texture -- I leave it for about 7 minutes. Serve as desired
Notes
- It's up to you if you want to use the potato, you don't have to and both versions taste delicious.
- Serve with some homemade salsa verde for topping like my, Easy Salsa Verde
