Chorizo and Potato Omelette
This is a quick omelette that is very tasty. DH insists that it must be served with grilled Turkish bread, but a well dressed salad adds some greens to the plate, the vinegar cutting through the fattiness of the chorizo. Chorizo isn’t exactly a diet sausage, but it is oh so good. Serves 2

Ingredients
3 small washed potatoes, cut into small cubes
1 chorizo sausage, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp of fresh rosemary, chopped or 1/4 tsp of dried
5 eggs, beaten
Method
- Boil or steam potatoes until tender. Drain.
- Fry the chorizo on medium high until golden. Remove chorizo and put aside.
- Add the potatoes to the chorizo fat in the pan and cook tossing them until golden. Remove and place with chorizo.
- Sprinkle the rosemary into the pan and cook for a few seconds before adding the eggs. There should still be a little bit of fat in the pan, but if not add a little oil or butter to ensure your eggs don’t stick.
- As the omelette cooks, draw the sides away slightly, tilting the pan and letting the top run down and cook.
- Finish the omelette off under the griller / broiler for a minute or two until the top is cooked.
