Serves 4 peopleIngredients
- 6 -7 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 1/4 lb pasqual's chorizo sausage (or other bulk chorizo)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 (15 1/2 ounce) can hominy, drained (preferably yellow hominy)
Directions
- Break eggs into a bowl; add in cream, salt, and pepper.
-
Whisk just long enough to combine; set aside.
-
Add the chorizo to a 10-inch skillet over medium heat.
-
Fry until well browned and cooked, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks.
-
Add enough butter to the drippings to make about 2 tablespoons of fat.
-
When the butter is melted, add in the hominy and heat through.
-
Scoop out about ½ cup of the hominy mixture and reserve; lower the heat to med-low.
-
Pour in the egg mixture; cook 3-4 minutes, frequently stirring up from the bottom with a spatula, until the eggs form soft curds and are lightly set but still look a little runny (do not overcook).
-
Remove from the heat and stir an additional time or two.
-
Top each portion with some of the reserved hominy; serve immediately.
