Ingredients
- Olive oil spray, for cooking
- 120 g chorizo sausage, cut into 1 cm slices
- 2 rindless bacon rashers, halved
- 6 eggs
- 1 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1 large tomato, finely chopped
- ½ cup picked flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped
- Lemon wedges, toasted sourdough, to serve
Instructions
- Spray a 22 cm non-stick frying pan with oil, then place on medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and bacon and cook until very crisp. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and allow to cool, then transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop.
- Return the pan to medium heat with more cooking oil, if required. Crack the eggs into a large jug and whisk well to combine. Pour half the beaten eggs into the pan, tilting the pan to coat the base of the pan. Cook for 1 minute, or until just set, then sprinkle with half the bacon and chorizo mixture, half the onion, tomato and parsley (reserving the remainder for a second omelette!). Cook for 1 minute further, or until just set. Gently fold the omelette in half using a large spatula, then transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining mixture.
- Serve the bacon and chorizo omelettes with lemon wedges and toasted sourdough on the side.
