Instructions

Wash the bell peppers and dice them finely. If desired, remove the seeds from the jalapeño (for less heat) and slice the chili into thin strips. Peel the garlic and onion and dice both finely. Cut the potatoes into one- to two-centimeter cubes. Wash the tomatoes, remove the stems, and chop them finely.

Add oil, diced onion and bell pepper to a pan and fry with a generous pinch of salt over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent.

Add the garlic, jalapeño, and paprika and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring regularly. Next, add the potatoes and sausages or smoked tofu to the vegetables and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat.

Then add the tomatoes to the vegetables and sauté for two to three minutes, stirring constantly. Try to scrape up as much of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan as possible.

Reduce the heat and stir in protein sources such as pulled chicken or pan-fried tofu. Crack the eggs into the pan and stir for two to three minutes until set. Once the eggs are set but still slightly creamy, stir in the cheese.

Finally, season the vegetable stir-fry generously with salt and pepper and serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pre-Cook Potato Perfection 🥔
Par-boil or microwave pre-cooked potatoes for 2-3 minutes before stir-frying to ensure they crisp up beautifully and absorb maximum flavor.
Mise en Place Magic 🔪
Chop all vegetables to uniform sizes to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the stir-fry.
Protein Pairing Precision 🍗
If adding protein, season and sear it separately first, then set aside and add back into the stir-fry during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to prevent overcooking.
Jalapeño Heat Control 🌶️
Remove the jalapeño seeds for a milder heat, or keep them for extra spiciness - always mince finely to distribute heat evenly.
Oil Temperature Technique 🍳
Use a high smoke point oil like canola and heat it until it shimmers but doesn't smoke, ensuring a perfect stir-fry sear without burning.
