Home Fries

Method

Home Fries

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash, peel, and dice the russet potatoes into small cubes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the diced potatoes.

  3. 3

    Season and Fry

    Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes.

Burrito Filling

  1. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    Chop the onion and bell pepper into small pieces. In a separate skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and sauté the onion and bell pepper until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 5

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs. Pour them into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are fully cooked.

  3. 6

    Add Pastrami and Cheese

    Stir in the diced pastrami and shredded cheddar cheese. Cook until the cheese is melted and everything is heated through.

  4. 7

    Assemble the Burritos

    Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan. Spoon the egg mixture onto each tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly.

Cheese Sauce

  1. 8

    Make the Roux

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbly.

  2. 9

    Add Milk

    Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.

  3. 10

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and ground mustard until the cheese is melted and smooth.
