Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the potatoes and dice them into small, uniform cubes for even cooking.
  2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until just tender but not mushy.
  3. Drain the potatoes thoroughly and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the chorizo. Break it apart with a spoon and cook until browned and the fat has rendered.
  5. If there is excess oil, drain it off, leaving about a tablespoon for frying the potatoes.
  6. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
  7. Add the par-cooked potatoes to the skillet with the chorizo and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are well-browned and crispy, about 10 minutes.
  8. In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt and freshly ground pepper until frothy.
  9. Pour the beaten eggs over the chorizo and potato mixture in the skillet.
  10. Gently stir with a fork, pushing the eggs around until they are softly scrambled and just set, but still moist.
  11. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the chopped cilantro.
  12. Transfer to plates and garnish with sliced green onions and grated Panela cheese before serving.
