MEXICAN POTATO & CHORIZO TORTILLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Line baking sheet with parchment paper or use your baking stone.
• Boil potatoes until tender. Cool, peel and dice.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 T olive oil and when hot add the onions, cook, stirring constantly until golden. 8-10 minutes.
• Add the chorizo and cook, stirring and breaking up, for about 10 minutes until chorizo is cooked through.
• Add garlic and saute for 1 minute. *At this point, I drained & blotted away the excess chorizo oil.
• Add oregano, salt, cumin and potatoes. Stir constantly and brown potatoes (I'm not sure my potatoes browned but warm through at the least), for about 5-10 minutes.
• Lightly brush one side of each tortilla with olive oil.
• Separate your tortillas into 2 stacks> one will be the bottom and one will be the top to make a "sandwich".
• Divide the cheese into 2 portions. Spread 1/2 of cheese evenly over each tortilla. Top with the remaining tortilla to make a sandwich. Place on baking stone or baking sheet. Half way through the baking, press each tortilla with a spatula to release any air pockets. Bake until golden browned and crisp on both sides. *I did not flip.
• Top each pizza sandwich with 2 T salsa, or desired amount, spreading it around with the back of the spoon almost to the edges.
• Divide the chorizo-potato mixture into equal parts for each pizza. Piling slightly in the center. Top with remaining cheese and roasted pepper slices. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted.
• Slice into wedges and serve hot. Garnish with cilantro, green onions and sour cream if desired.
• Enjoy!

TORTILLA WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat canola oil in a 12-inch nonstick or cast iron saute pan over medium high heat. Add onions and peppers, cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add chorizo, potatoes, garlic, and cilantro stirring carefully as to not break up the potatoes, cook 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl whisk eggs with a pinch of salt until well blended. Add eggs to the pan with the chorizo mixture. Stir gently with a heatproof spatula, allowing the bottom to cook, pulling away at the sides to allow the egg on top to run underneath as if cooking an omelet.
• When eggs are mostly set but still a little runny place pan in oven for about 5 minutes until set and slightly puffed and brown on top.
• Remove from oven. Cut into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

POTATO AND CHORIZO TORTILLA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Pour 3 tablespoons olive oil into a 12-inch non stick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and fry for 5 minutes; add the potato and onion and fry until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and cover the skillet; cook until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the cover, raise the heat, and cook until the potatoes are brown and crispy, about another 5 minutes. Meanwhile break the eggs into a large bowl, add the milk, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until frothy. Pour the egg mixture into the pan, shaking the pan to distribute the eggs evenly. Put the pan into the oven and cook until puffy and set, about 12 to 15 minutes. Turn out onto a cutting board and let it cool to room temperature. Toss the baby greens with the remaining oil and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Place the greens on top of the tortilla, cut it into thin wedges, and serve.

PATATAS BRAVAS WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Heat a little oil in a pan, fry the onion, garlic and chilli until the onion softens, add the cayenne and paprika and stir. Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer, then cook the whole mixture down for about 20 mins until you have a thick paste. Season well and, if you prefer a smooth sauce, blitz it with a hand blender.
• Meanwhile, steam the potatoes for 10 mins and put the chorizo in a frying pan to slowly cook and release some of its oil. Tip off the excess red oil and add 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the potatoes and fry everything together, turning the heat up as you go so both the potatoes and chorizo brown in patches. Tip into a bowl. Season the sauce - if it isn't hot enough add a few more pinches of cayenne. Spoon the sauce over the potatoes and chorizo to serve.
