The story behind
This dish instantly brings back memories of sharing a tiny apartment with college roommates. Whenever we were completely broke but wanted a meal that tasted like a luxury, we’d throw this together. It’s funny how just two humble ingredients can create something so incredibly rich and satisfying. It’s the ultimate comfort food for a late-night dinner or a heavy weekend lunch after a long week. I highly recommend eating it taco-style with flour tortillas, a spoonful of creamy refried beans, and pairing it with a crisp Mexican lager or a cold hibiscus iced tea.
Instructions
-
1Boil the diced potatoes in salted water for about 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but still firm; drain well.
-
2In a large skillet, cook the crumbled chorizo over medium heat until it releases its oils and crisps up.
-
3Toss the drained potatoes directly into the skillet with the chorizo, stirring well to coat them completely.
-
4Turn the heat up a notch and let them fry together, flipping occasionally, until the potatoes get those beautiful golden, crispy edges.
-
5Plate hot next to a generous scoop of refried beans garnished with tortilla chips.
