Chorizo And Potato Egg Custard With New Mexican Chile Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the sauce: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the jalapeno, onion and a pinch of salt and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, oregano, crushed red pepper and black pepper and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the sugar, chiles and stock and remove from the heat. Blend in a food processor or blender until smooth. Return it to the pan and simmer for 20 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired.
• For the filling: Spread the tots out on a sheet pan, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside, then reduce the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chorizo, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until fully cooked. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a large bowl. Reserve a thin coating of fat in the skillet and discard any excess. Add the onion and a pinch of salt to the skillet and cook until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the eggs and scramble, cooking until just set. (Err on the side of them being underdone, since they'll continue to cook in the oven.) Transfer to the bowl with the chorizo and fold to combine. Season to taste (you may decide not to add any salt, since the chorizo has salt).
• Spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the tortillas on a work surface. Spoon a heaping 1/3 cup of the egg mixture onto each tortilla. Top with a handful of the cheese and 6 potato tots. Roll up the tortillas and arrange them seam-side down in the baking dish. Top evenly with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese is browned, about 40 minutes.
• Top with dollops of sour cream, jalapenos, radishes and fresh cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• In a nonstick skillet, cook and crumble chorizo over medium-high heat until cooked through, 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels. In same skillet, cook and stir potatoes, onion and pepper until tender, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; stir in chorizo. Cool 15 minutes., Whisk eggs, cream, green chiles and chili powder. Layer a greased 11x7-in. baking dish with half each of the following: chorizo mixture, cheeses, and egg mixture; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cilantro. Top with remaining chorizo and eggs; sprinkle with remaining cheeses and 1 tablespoon cilantro. Refrigerate, covered, overnight., Preheat oven to 350°. Remove casserole from refrigerator while oven heats. Bake, uncovered 35-40 minutes, or until set and bubbling. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro. Serve with sour cream and pepper sauce.

Steps:

• Cook your chopped potatoes in a 12" frying pan.
• Saute chorizo in a sauce pan by it's self, while the potatoes finish cooking.
• Pour cooked chorizo sauce into your cooked potatoes (pour off excess oils to taste).
• Mix the chorizo completely into your cooked potatoes.
• Pour your eggs into your mixed potatoes and chorizo and stir or you can fold and make an omelet.
• Cook until done and server immediately, as scrambled eggs, a burrito or an omelet.
• If your crowd is really big eaters, add spainsh rice and refiried beans -- I make this even on camping trips, you should see the people in the campgrounds looking around when they smell this in the morning, put out some Menudo with onions, clantro and you have a very tasty meal no matter where you are, enjoy.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, cook chorizo over medium-high heat in a large skillet, breaking up any large clumps, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove chorizo to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon, reserving about 1 tablespoon of grease in the skillet. Add oil if necessary to make up 1 tablespoon.
• Cook onion in the same skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add potatoes to the skillet and saute until potatoes are lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in chorizo and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• For the pico de gallo: Mix together the tomatoes, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, avocados and onions in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cover and chill.
• For the tacos: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the chorizo until cooked through, breaking up with back of wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chorizo to a paper-towel-lined-plate. Add the potatoes and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined-plate. Whisk the eggs and sprinkle with salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the eggs to the same skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring until the eggs are softly set, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the chorizo and potatoes to the skillet and toss with the eggs to warm through and finish cooking the eggs. Toast the tortillas in a small skillet over medium-high heat, topping each tortilla evenly with the cheese, until the cheese melts and the tortillas begin to crisp on the bottom, about 1 minute. Transfer to a platter. Put 1/2 cup of the egg and chorizo mixture in each tortilla and top with 1 tablespoon of the pico de gallo. Reserve any leftover pico de gallo for another use. Fold each tortilla in half and serve with the sour cream and hot sauce.

Steps:

• Chorizo -- To a large sauce pan, add 1 teaspoon olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add the chorizo and saute until golden brown breaking up the chorizo as it cooks. Cook until golden brown and remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
• Eggs -- Now in the same pan, remove most of the drippings from the chorizo, but I do keep just a little - 1 teaspoon, just for a little flavor. Then I add in the butter, onions, garlic, red pepper, jalapeno and cook until tender and soft. No need to brown them, you just want them soft. Then add in the eggs, salt, pepper and cook until you get a soft scramble. Remember -- they are going to be baked so don't over cook them. Right at the end, toss in the scallions and mix to combine.
• Tortillas -- I wrap 5 at a time in a damp paper towel and microwave for just 30 seconds until lightly warm which makes them plyable. You can also wrap in foil and use the oven if you prefer.
• Filling -- Add the chorizo into the egg mixture and put a heaping spoon into each tortilla. Take 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and divide among the 10 tortillas. Fold over from one edge, tuck the sides in and finish rolling.
• Casserole -- In a 13x9" pan, spray with Pam or a non stick spray. Add 1 can or approximately 10 oz of the enchilada or chile sauce in the casserole dish and place the rolled enchiladas seam side down. Top with the remaining sauce and cheese.
• Bake -- In a 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes covered with foil until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted. Remember, everything is cooked. I bake mine on the middle shelf.
• Serve -- I love to squeeze fresh lime over the top and then serve family style and let everyone help themselves to the garnishes. Anything goes! This is just a wonderful brunch, lunch or dinner. Recipe #389419, are great with this dish for dinner, but so is rice, salad, or just about anything. Have fun and ENJOY!

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Heat a dry heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) over moderate heat until hot, then toast chiles, pressing down with tongs and turning occasionally, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl. Toast garlic in skillet, turning occasionally, until softened and slightly charred, about 5 minutes, then transfer to bowl. Toast cumin in skillet, stirring, until fragrant and a few shades darker, about 30 seconds, then transfer to a blender along with tomatoes and salt. Discard stems and seeds from chiles and add to blender. Peel garlic and add to blender. Purée until smooth.
• Prepare potatoes and chorizo:
• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Peel potatoes and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Cook potatoes in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan of boiling salted water until just tender but not falling apart, about 8 minutes, then drain in a colander. Arrange slices, overlapping, in oiled baking dish.
• Cook onion in oil in a large heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add chorizo and cook, stirring, until chorizo is heated through, about 5 minutes. Spoon mixture evenly over potatoes and top with 1 cup sauce, spreading evenly.
• Prepare custard and bake:
• Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and pepper until combined well and slowly pour into dish. Bake in middle of oven until custard is just set in center, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before cutting. Serve remaining chile sauce on the side.
