Baked eggs with tomato and chorizo
bloMy new favorite recipe… easy and yummy…. healthy??? not sure. hehehhe…. I surely use very small amount of olive oil… the chorizo…
it surely is fatty. hueehue.. Btw, Chorizo is a spanish sausage.. *if I’m not wrong* or is it phillipine’s?? anyway… it is spicy, blended with some herbs… it sold either in forms of whole sausages or shaved.. I bought whole chorizos @ Safeway .. you can actually change the chorizo with your favorite sausage or precooked meat… but I think chorizo’s the best.. hehe
INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp olive oil
½ garlic clove, sliced
3 tomatoes, roughly chopped
salt
½ tsp cumin powder (optional)
½ (dry) chorizo, sliced
4 eggs
1 tbsp parsley, chopped
METHOD
· Pre-heat oven to 200C. Heat oil in a pan and cook garlic
till golden. Add tomatoes, salt to taste and cumin, cover with a
lid, reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes until soft.
· Spoon tomatoes into individual baking dishes with some
sliced chorizo, make a well in the middle and break one egg into
each dish. Sprinkle a little salt over the egg and place in the
oven.
· Cook for about 10 minutes or to your liking. Serve at
once with a sprinkle of parsley.
I tried to give that recipe a go… The result?? Not bad… One thing I’m a lil bit unsure, is this dish supposed to be a bit juicy?? Cuz you got tomato there… and when it’s cooked it gets juicy.. or should I use another variety of tomato?? I also add sum chili, ginger, and onion.. why?? cuz I luv them.. chili, ginger and onion… yummy… hehhe.
Anyway, I got the picture of the result of this recipe.. my version of course… got a lil bit dilemma here.. cuz I only take the picture when I already ate half of them…. btw, instead of putting it into separate small baking dishes, I put half the ingredients together in a small square terracotta baking pan….
and no, I won’t put the pic of my first Baked eggs with tomato and Chorizo…. I’ll put one when I made my second go… I just don’t wanna ruin your imagination guys.. cuz my version is just not decent enough to be posted here… despite the taste.. yummy….

Got this from Wikipedia about Chorizo:
Chorizo is a pork sausage originating from Spain. Sometimes it is made from baby goat. It is made from coarsely chopped fatty pork and usually seasoned with chili and paprika. The mild Spanish paprika used is what gives this sausage its characteristic flavor. The paprika itself can be found as either picante (hot) or dulce (sweet).
Yay!! It is from Spain… and here’s what I come up with when I try to bring that recipe into reality…
