Plantain and Chorizo Honey Hash Brunch
An Afro-Mexican brunch original, caramelised sweet plantain and crispy Spanish chorizo fried together in a hash then finished with honey and scotch bonnet so the West African plantain tradition and the Iberian cured pork meet in a brunch dish where the sweet pork fat, caramelised fruit, and chilli heat are all structurally present.

Instructions
1
Prep
Peel and slice plantains diagonally 2cm thick. Dice chorizo into 1.5cm cubes. Mince scotch bonnet finely after deseeding. Mix honey, scotch bonnet, and lime juice in a small bowl. Thinly slice scallions. Measure out coriander and have lime wedges ready.
2
Sear
Heat 2 tsp oil in a large wide frying pan over medium-high. Add chorizo, cook 4–5 minutes until fat renders and edges crisp. Remove with slotted spoon, leaving oil in pan.

Sear 2
Add plantain slices to chorizo fat. Cook 2–3 minutes per side over medium-high until deep golden and caramelised. You may need to work in two batches depending on pan size.
4
Glaze
Return chorizo to pan with plantain. Toss 1 minute to combine. Drizzle honey-scotch bonnet mixture over hash. Toss over medium heat 1–2 minutes until glaze coats everything and caramelises.

Fry
Push hash to one side. Add 2 tsp oil to empty side. Crack all 4 eggs in, fry 3–4 minutes over medium heat until whites set and yolks remain runny.
6
Plate
Divide hash and eggs between two warm plates. Scatter scallions and coriander over top. Serve with lime wedges.
