Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 Chorizo
- 1 punnet Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbs Olive Oil
- 2 tbs Balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 Eggs
- 200g Rocket
- 80g Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 Lemon, cut in wedges
Instructions
Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Place a frying pan over a medium-high heat with water filling the pan about 2cm. Add chorizo and cook for about 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally until brown or cooked through. Drain on paper towel. When cooled, slice the chorizo and return to the pan for another 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
- Return frying pan to the heat and drizzle with a little oil if needed. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes, shaking pan occasionally, until tomatoes are softened. Transfer to a bowl. Pour over the oil, vinegar and seasonings. Gently toss to combine then set aside.
- Return frying pan to the heat and add 1 tbs of oil. Whisk together the eggs and season a little. Pour eggs into the pan and cook for about 3 minutes until the base is set. The top will still be runny.
- Place the chorizo pieces on top of the omelette. Working quickly, use a slotted spoon to lift the tomatoes from the dressing, (setting the dressing aside) and scatter the tomatoes over the top of egg mixture.
- Place pan under the grill and cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until egg is just set, puffed and golden brown.
- Toss rocket leaves in the reserved dressing and sprinkle with parmesan. Cut omelette into wedges and serve with rocket salad and lemon wedges.
