Ingredients with Measurements:
- 4 Guagua longganisa links
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 cup chopped bell pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped tomato
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Special equipment needed:
- Non-stick skillet
- Spatula
Step-by-step instructions:
1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Guagua longganisa links and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and tomato. Cook until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them with the vegetables. Cook until the eggs are set, about 3-5 minutes.
4. Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the skillet and stir until melted and combined with the eggs and vegetables.
5. Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet until soft and pliable.
6. To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla on a plate. Add a quarter of the egg and vegetable mixture to the center of the tortilla. Top with a Guagua longganisa link.
7. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll the burrito tightly.
8. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
9. Heat the vegetable oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the burritos and cook until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
10. Serve hot with your favorite hot sauce or salsa.
