Chorizo and Potato Fritta
Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2000

Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced onions
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound chorizo sausage, small diced
2 cups small diced white potatoes, blanched
8 large eggs
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large non-stick ovenproof saute
pan, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Season with salt and
pepper. Saute until caramelized, about 8 minutes. Add the sausage and saute for 2 minutes. Add the
potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to saute for 1 minute. In a mixing bowl, whisk
the eggs until frothy. Season with salt and pepper. Using the back of a spoon, lightly press the

chorizo/potato mixture over the bottom of the pan. Pour in the egg mixture.

Place in the oven and bake until the center is firm to the touch, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the
pan from the oven and cool slightly. Slice into individual servings and place on serving plates.
Garnish with parsley.
