omleta de chouriça com queijo
I like breakfast, omelets are quick easy & nutritious or a great lunch or brunch. Here is a step by step to make an easy omelet. An omelet made with some sliced chouriço (portuguese sausage) and some grated cheese (queijo) makes for a tasty omelet.
you can make an omelet with as many eggs as you like, but for one serving one or two eggs is sufficient, some thinly sliced chouriço or Lingüiça and some fresh grated cheese (queijo) of choice.
in a skillet, warm the chouriço in a drizzle of olive oil.
beat the eggs lightly
melt some butter in a HOT skillet
Pour the egg mixture into the Hot skillet (it’s important to keep it hot) the eggs will cook up very fast.
move the pan around in circular motions to spread the eggs on the entire skillet so it is thin & allow to cook, as the eggs set up quickly jerk the pan from front to back to loosen the eggs from the pan (they should slide around the pan (this only takes a minute or so).
add the sliced chouriço or Lingüiça and some gratted cheese & flip or fold the eggs, (you may need to use a spatula to assist the folding).
Sprinkle more shredded cheese (queijo) served with some fresh toasted crusty Portuguese bread.
