Method

Deep-fry Chefs’ Selections hash browns at 180°C for 3–4 minutes, until golden and crispy.

Make the guacamole: mash 2 ripe avocados with juice of 1 lime, ¼ tsp chilli flakes, and ½ red onion (finely diced). Mix well.

Prepare the tomato salsa: combine 6 finely diced, deseeded salad tomatoes with ½ finely diced red onion, 1 tbsp sherry vinegar, 4 tbsp olive oil, and chopped coriander.

Fry sliced chorizo in a hot pan for 2 minutes until slightly crispy and golden.

Fry an egg to your preference.

Plate up the crispy hash browns.

Garnish with sliced jalapeños and extra coriander if desired.

Layer the toppings strategically – start with guacamole as a base to prevent the hash browns from getting soggy, then add salsa and chorizo before crowning with the fried egg.
