Chorizo,Scrambled Egg Tortilla Wrap with Tomato Salsa & sour cream







This dish must go under the, 'Not So Portuguese' category which I intend to set up. This dish has all the ingredients the Portuguese love, but I'd say it's probably more Spanish than Portuguese. Never the less it's delicious. You can make this dish for Sunday brunch if you have the energy or for a weekend lunch.
I've made this dish for my family at dinner time when I don't want to slave over a hot stove.



INGREDIENTS (Serves 4 people)

  • 1x12  pkt tortilla wrap small/med size
  • 8 eggs
  • 200ml milk
  • 1 tea salt
  • 1/2 tea white pepper
  • 2 chorizo, sliced
  • 1 bunch coriander,chopped
  • 2 tea tajine mix or paprika
  • 2 large tomato, diced
  • 1 bunch shallots(scallion), chopped
  • 50g shredded tasty cheese or 1 slice
  • 1 pkt (300ml) sour cream
  • drizzle of olive oil



1. Crack the eggs into a bowl lightly beating them, then add the milk,  salt and pepper.




2. Dice the tomato into small cubes, then add the shallots, coriander and the tajine mix,add a pinch of salt and pepper.

3. Cut the chorizo into slices, grill or pan fry until crispy, then place to the side.





4.  Heat a fry pan add a drizzle of olive oil then add the eggs and scramble lightly. Don't overcook them, leave them a bit under done.


5. On a work surface place the tortilla down, lay 4 pieces of chorizo slices, a sprinkle of coriander, same scrambled egg(divide the eggs between 4 tortillas), cheese & tajine spice.




6. Wrap the tortilla. Then fry the tortilla in a non stick pan on low/medium heat or place the tortilla in a sandwich press.


7. Once the tortilla is golden brown cut it in half and place it on a plate. Add the tomato salsa and a tablespoon of sour cream. 

TIPS
  • You can use parsley instead of coriander.
  • Use any type of spice that has a chili & paprika base, such as Moroccan, tajine or anything else.
  • The reason you want to under cook your eggs is that when you cook the tortilla the eggs will cook again, therefore you don't want them too dry and rubbery.
  • You can add a drizzle of oil to your salsa if you like.

PORTUGAL: WORLD'S MOST BRUTAL COLONISER AND COMMENCED SLAVE TRADE IN 1441


The Portuguese had a brutal record in the Americas as a colonial power. The most horrendous abuses occurred in the colony of Brazil: natives were enslaved, murdered, tortured and raped in the conquest and early part of the colonial period and later they were disenfranchised and excluded from power. Individual acts of cruelty are too numerous and dreadful to list here. Portuguese Conquistadors in Brazil reached levels of cruelty that are nearly inconceivable to modern sentiments.

Today, Portugal is the Biggest Racist country that i have ever lived in. I feared for my life there and i consider myself lucky that my family got out alive! I have never lived in such poverty (Sopas dos Pobres everyday) 40% unemployment rate and 60% of the population earn less than $932 USD per month, and that’s considered Middle Class here! Within the European Union it is the worst of the worst place to live in.

The bottom line is the bulk of the People in the poor country of Portugal exist in a brainless comma that is fed by Ignorance, anti-Spanish hate, and severe Racism of pretty much everybody that isn’t Portuguese! And, Portugal started the Global Slave Trade in 1441 so it is definitely NOT a safe place for Blacks!!


I HEREBY ALERT ALL PEOPLE ON EARTH TO NOT BUY FROM PORTUGAL, DO NOT SPEND YOUR HARD, EARNED MONEY GOING THERE AND BOYCOTT ALL PORTUGUESE STORES IN YOUR AREA! DON'T BUY THEIR GOODS OR WINES!!!

THESE XENOPHOBIC RACISTS HAVE TO LEARN AND THE BEST WAY IS TO BLOCK THEM ECONOMICALLY!

BE CAREFUL FRIENDS!

VIVA Portugal Gypsies! The BEST part and MOST Forgotten part of our Heritage! LUSO? AN invented word because we are all phenotype of Arabs and gypsies in Portugal!!! Thank you for allowing me to share my personal experience. You are a beacon of light in a world of darkness where nobody is allowed to speak of their experiences anymore. Again, thank you kindly. Lots of Love (L)
