Ingredients

450g frozen hash browns
15ml olive oil
450g fresh chorizo
1 yellow onion, chopped
12 eggs
340g grated cheddar cheese, divided
360ml sour cream, divided
240ml whole milk
5g kosher salt
2.5g ground pepper
120g chopped green onions
1 avocado, sliced
60g pickled jalapeños (optional)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease a 23x33cm (9x13 inch) baking dish. Spread hash browns evenly over the bottom of the baking dish.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add chorizo and onion, using a spatula to crumble the meat into smaller pieces. Cook until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, 255g cheddar cheese, 180ml sour cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cooked chorizo mixture.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture over the hash browns in the baking dish. Dollop the remaining 180ml sour cream over the eggs, and sprinkle with the remaining 85g cheese.
Step 5
Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the center is just set. Sprinkle with green onions, avocado, and pickled jalapeños, if using. Cut into squares and serve immediately.
