Corn Tortilla, scrambled eggs, mushroom, tomatoes, capsicum with paprika and parmesan cheese

6 yeas ago when I was in Italy - I was served this dish for breakfast in a small  family run cafe in a small village called Bartolommeo - this recipe just takes scrambled eggs to a whole new level and the parmesan cheese give it its unique flavour - a perfect breakfast to start your weekend.

 

Ingredients:

 

2 large organic eggs - ( I am greedy so it has to be large)

1 corn tortilla cut into thin strips

2table spoon of good quality olive oil

2-3 cubes of butter

Handful of chopped spring onion

4-5 diced wild mushroom

Half pepper - thinly sliced

1 red or green chilli finely chopped

salt and pepper to taste

Finely chopped herbs of your choice.

1 tsp of paprika

Remember you can use any vegetable or even diced chicken if you like.

 

In a large pan put 1 tsp of olive oil and fry the strips of tortilla until they are crisp and lightly golden brown - keep aside

Then put in the remaining oil and butter and add the chillies followed by the vegetables and saute for -2-3 mins

Now add the fried tortilla back in the pan with the vegetables followed by the two beaten mix and fold lightly to get to a creme scrambles egg consistency

Season with salt and pepper

 

Serve with loads of grated parmesan cheese and finely chopped herbs of your choice I used basil.
