Huevos Revueltos
- 12 ounces Mexican pork chorizo, bulk or links
- 1/2 cup water
- 9 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 large eggs, whisked together
- 8 (5 1/2-inch) soft yellow corn tortillas (page 13), for serving
- Garnish: Small fresh cilantro leaves
- If the chorizo is in links, slit open the casings, remove the filling (discard the casings), and break it up with your hands.
- Bulk sausage is ready to use.
- In a small saucepan, add the chorizo and the water, and simmer over medium heat until the chorizo is cooked and all the water is gone (do not let meat get crusty; do not discard fat rendered in the pan), about 6 minutes; do not let the chorizo brown.
- Set aside and keep warm.
- Preheat a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
- Melt the butter, then add the eggs immediately after and cook them about 2 minutes.
- Add the chorizo and any rendered fat to the eggs, remove from the heat, and stir 1 to 2 minutes, until they are done, but not dry.
- To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter.
- Divide the egg-chorizo mixture equally between the tortillas and top with salsa.
- Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
- Grab, fold, and eat right away.
- Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand.
- Spoon on some egg-chorizo mixture, then top with salsa and a sprinkling of cilantro.
- Fold and eat right away.
