Method

Omelette Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon until browned and cooked through.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chorizo is cooking, dice the tomato, onion, and green chile. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together. Add salt and pepper to taste, then stir in the diced tomato, onion, and green chile.

  4. 4

    Combine and Cook

    Once the chorizo is cooked, reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the chorizo. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.

  5. 5

    Finish the Omelette

    Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette and tilt the pan to allow uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the eggs are fully set. Fold the omelette in half and slide onto a plate.

Sides Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Boil in salted water for about 10-15 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 7

    Heat the Refried Beans

    In a small saucepan, heat the refried beans over low heat, stirring occasionally until warmed through.

  3. 8

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet, warm the tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable. Alternatively, wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10 minutes.
