SAUSAGE AND POTATO TORTILLA

 

I always like to have a recipe like this up my sleeve as this can be made very quickly and you can add left over veggies or meat and you have a very quick dinner!

Serves 4

Ingredients

4 Tbsp oil

4 sausages

2-3 potatoes, scrubbed and sliced thinly

1 onion, sliced thinly

1 clove garlic, sliced thinly

6 eggs

50g cheese, feta, cheddar or your favourite

1 Tbsp parsley, roughly chopped

Method

Preheat the grill to high.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large heavy-based fry pan. Remove the sausage meat from the sausages so you get little balls. Add to the pan and cook for to 2-3 minutes so they brown. Remove and set aside.

Add another tablespoon oil to the pan and heat up to medium- high, add the potatoes and cook until (3-4 minutes), add the onions and garlic and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes on a medium heat.

Beat the eggs with a little salt and cracked pepper, add the parsley, sausages and potato mixture.  Stir to combine.

Wipe the pan clean and add 2 more tablespoons of oil, heat over medium-high heat and pour into egg mixture.  Using a wooden spoon or spatula, carefully move the mixture from the outside of the pan to the inside to get the mixture cooking evenly.  Once you have the eggs starting to cook, do not move any more.  Allow the base to set for a couple minutes.

Sprinkle over the cheese and place under the hot grill to brown.  This will only take a minute or two.

Remove and cut into desired slices and serve alongside a crunchy salad.
