We had this for brunch over the weekend…….it does taste as divine as it looks.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chorizo
- 3 Eggs
- 1 Egg white
- 1 chilli de-seeded and diced
- 1/4 cup cheese
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 dozen sticks of asparagus
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 2 tsp butter
- salt to season
- handful of fresh chives chopped
Method
Eggs: Dice chorizo and fry in a heated a frying pan till it becomes slightly crispy. Drain on paper towel. Crack eggs in a bowl, add the egg white, milk, salt and whisk. Add 3/4 of the chorizo and 1/2 the chopped chives to the mixture. In a frying pan heat oil and 1 tsp butter. Pour in the egg mixture and cook for a minute, add cheese and cook for another minute or so before taking pan off heat. (We like our eggs firm so we cook it for at least 3 mins.)
Asparagus: Heat remaining butter in a frying pan, throw in the chilli and cook for 1/2 minute, add asparagus, toss for 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if you wish.
To serve, Place eggs on toasted sourdough, with asparagus on the side and garnish with remaining chives and chorizo.
