ARAGON’S MIGAS’ RECIPE


Hi everyone! Today I’m going to explain you how to do one of the most common dishes in Spain even though it is not as well known in the rest of the world as other Spanish dishes such paella or tortilla de patata.
This dish is called migas, which is literal translated into English as breadcrumbs. This is a traditional shepherd dish. Along the Spanish territory there’re several ways to prepare it, however I’m going to focus on Aragon’s recipe because it’s the province I live on.
For a four people recipe, we’ll need these ingredients:


Ø 2 loafs of bread of 250gr. finely cut to get breadcrumbs 
Ø Olive oilØ 1 big onionØ Some garlic gloves
Ø A cup of water 
Ø 4 eggsØ ChorizoØ Longaniza
Ø BaconØ Serrano hamØ A big bunch of grapes 
Ø Salt to taste



These are the steps you must follow in case you want to cook migas:
  1. First of all we have to cut everything into finely pieces. Then we drop olive oil in a big-deep frying-pan, when it’s hot enough; we fry the Serrano ham, chorizo, longaniza and bacon that we had previously cut. Once fried, we kept them in a plate.
  2. In the same oil we used for frying the meat pieces we brown some peeled and whole garlic gloves. When they are already brown, we add the finely cut onion and we turn down the heat because we don’t want the onion to be burnt but we want it to be transparent.
  3. Once we have the stir-fry done it’s time to add the breadcrumbs, the water and the salt while we stir nonstop.
    1. Without stop stirring we turn up the heat and we add the meat pieces.
    2. When the breadcrumbs are loose and all the ingredients are well mixed, we try them to check the taste and see whether we have to add more salt.
      After this, we left them rest for a while. In the meantime we fry the eggs and wash and kernel the grapes.
    3. Finally, we put the breadcrumbs in a plate; we add one egg and the kernel grapes.
    So we have already cooked our dish and we just need to eat it and enjoy it!
