Two continents united - Fusion Cuisine

So this is something completely else. I have already entertained you with some cocktails my better half created. This one is a dish we made yesterday. I was EW's right hand lady. He's a perfectionist with high standards, so working together with him can be sometimes difficult... ;-). Anyway this receipt bridges Europe (Spain) with Asia (Thailand, China). Tell me if you tried it and if it was to your taste. A lot of people would say this ingredients are odd and don't work together. I loved it, though, and thought it is worth sharing. This is for two people.

What you need:


1 tortilla espanola (Spanish potato omelet, either self made or shop bought, we had shop bought)
1 pack stir fry (your choice, we had a cabbage, broccoli, red onion mix)
1 stir fry sauce (in our case Amoy Thai Chili Sauce)
1 chorizo, ca. 200 g (Spanish spicy sausage; ring chorizo is preferable over sliced one, tastes better in our opinion, but it's up to you.)
oil
a frying pan
a wok
3 plates

How to make it:

We cooked this in batches, because we only have a small kitchen.

Slice the chorizo into bite sized pieces, heat oil and fry the chorizo until it's through and piping hot. Set aside.
Cook the tortilla espanola as instructed, if you use a shop bought one. Set also aside, but keep it warm.
Heat oil in the wok and stir fry the vegetables, according to the packaging.
Add the sauce and when it's nearly finished, add the chorizo.
Divide the stir fry on two plates, leave some space for the tortilla.
Cut the tortilla into 4 quarters, place one of the slices at the empty space of the plate, the other goes on top of the stir fry. Repeat with the second plate.

Buen provecho / kŏr hâi jà-rern aa-hăan! / Enjoy your meal!
