Pasta with Chorizo and Olives

I am very much challenged in the kitchen.  Sure I can fry but even frying sunny side up gives me difficulty.  It was only last year when my friend Doris showed me how to do it that I learnt the secret.  Back in the UK, I tried my hands on cooking but my interest seems to be going on and off.  One minute I am enjoying it, the next minute I am craving for my usual fast food.  I tried to recreate famous Chinese takeaways out of necessity and I have succeeded.  The problem is, I forgot how to do it now.  

I was ill the past few days and still am now.  I needed my comfort food so I decided to cook a pasta dish for breakfast.  I went to the supermarket last night and bought chorizo de bilbao, the only chorizo that is available in the supermarket to my disappointment, onion and garlic.

My procedure was muy facil(Very Easy in Spanish.  I'll be injecting Span words and phrases in my blog so sue me.)  I cooked the Chorizo de Bilbao in low heat then I slowly added the garlic and onions while continuously sauteing the ingredients.  Once everything was cooked, I add in the olives and pepper to taste.  I use what I had in my fridge.  My cooking was average but it's enough to satisfy my cravings.  :)





This was my finished product.  I was very hungry then.  I took one shot and ate everything up.  PIG!

Hey Johnny!

I cooked it again the next day. Instead of the usual oil, I use butter and after cooking the chorizo, I deglazed the pan with olive brine. :)
