Yummy Recipe Post: Chorizo And Crisps Tortilla

Sunday, 5 August 2012 · Posted in , ,

As a change I thought for a new blog post I would share a really yummy recipe I've recently discovered! - Chorizo and crisps tortilla (the cheat version)

The tortilla is really simple to make and goes perfectly with a light salad and coleslaw when the sun's out, or French bread and baked beans on a more rainy day. 

The ingredients you need are the following:

  • 25 g bag of good quality crisps
  • ½ onion
  • 200 g chorizo sausage
  • Olive oil for frying
  • A pinch of table salt
You could also add peppers, herbs or real sliced potatoes for a more authentic spanish taste. 

How to make it:

1. Slice the onion thinly and fry on a non-sticking pan with a splash of oliver oil over a high heat, stirring from time to time. 

2. Add the chopped chorizo and cook for a further 2 mins. 

3. Mix the crisps with the onion, chorizo and eggs and season with salt. If possible pour the mixture into a jug or bowl and leave to soak for at least 30 mins.

4. Wipe the pan and bring back to the stove over a medium heat. Drizzle olive oil and pour the tortilla mixture into the pan  and lower the heat.


5. After 5 minutes, cover the pan with a plate (always wider than the pan) and, holding it tight with your hand, flip the tortilla onto the plate. Then slide the un-side-cooked tortilla back into the pan.

6. Serve whilst warm.

 My Jubilicious Weekend!! 



With the rainy weather slowly suppressing my motivation for a blog post, I'm pleased to say the sun showed its face all weekend which put me in a great mood to share what I got up to and update my lovely readers with the delicious new items recently added to our site!



Our trip to Longleat Safari Park
If you haven't already been to Longleat Safari Park in Bath then you really are missing out! As well as having a close encounter (with as little as a car window between you) with tigers, lions, monkeys and wolves, the park is really interactive which meant for an animal lover like me I was in heaven! I got to stroke a Meerkat, hold a snake, get covered in huge beautiful butterflies and hand feed deer! 

Jubilee party
Yesterday we went to my sister's street party in Worthing which was a really nice day! As well as lots of yummy food, face masks and games, there was also Girls vs Boys karaoke and a huge bouncy castle. I ended up doing face paints on the kiddies and inspired many with my jubilee themed nails below to get the nail varnish out and do their own!
