Huevos Rotos with Jamón and Chorizo

Ingredients

Quantities are for one portion.

• 1 tbspvegetable oil (for frying)
• 15 mlolive oil
• 30 gserrano ham (jamón), torn into strips
• 20 gchorizo, sliced
• salt to taste
• 150 gpotatoes, cut into thick fries
• 2eggs

Method

1. Dry the potato fries well. Heat the vegetable oil in a pan or use an oven to fry the potatoes until they are golden brown and totally crispy. Salt them immediately.
2. Heat the olive oil in a separate frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the sliced chorizo briefly until its oil renders, then remove it.
3. In that same oil, fry the eggs until the whites develop crispy, lacy edges but the yolks remain liquid.
4. Pile the hot, crispy fries onto a large serving plate.
5. Scatter the fried chorizo and the torn strips of raw serrano ham over the fries so the fat on the ham melts slightly from the heat.
6. Lay the hot fried eggs directly over the potatoes and meat.
7. Use a knife and fork to break the egg yolks over the dish immediately before eating, letting the yolk sauce the fries.
