Prep Time: 10 mins      Cook Time: 30 mins      Serves: 4

Ingredients

8 large potatoes, washed, cut into 1cm cubes

50g butter

1 onion, finely chopped

1 tsp minced garlic

1/2 tsp paprika

4 rashers bacon, chopped

2 chorizo sausages, sliced

4 eggs

Any other ingredients desired (see note)

Method

Nothing much. Just cook the onion and bacon, transfer them to a bowl, cook the potatoes, transfer them to a large bowl when golden and tender, cook the chorizo until golden and crunchy, add back the potatoes and bacon mixture and serve with the eggs.

The cook time for the potatoes is around 20 mins over a medium-high heat, decreasing and increasing the heat every now and then.

Notes

Other ingredients, like vegetables and meats, can be added. This recipe is great with leftovers. This includes vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts (only if you like them!), carrot, cauliflower, eggplant, mushroom, pumpkin, spinach, sweet potato, tomato, zucchini, etc., or meats such as leftover roast meats (chicken, pork, lamb), ham, steak, seafood (prawns, squid), etc.

To cook the chorizo, lay the slices flat in a pan over a low heat; do not add any oil unless the pan is not non-stick. This will take around 10-15 mins, rendering as much fat as possible.

The eggs can be served in this dish either fried or poached. This can also be served on toast, or just on its own with the eggs.
