Poached egg with chorize, potato and tomato

On Saturday afternoon I made this poached egg with chorizo, tomato, chilli and potato dish using the ingredients we had in the fridge. I fried the potatoes as we were so hungry and could not wait to boil them. It would be lighter and healthier if the potatoes are boiled.

Ingredients

3 medium potatoes cubed

Sunflower oil to fry the potatoes

1/2 Chorizo ring (100 gr) - sliced 1cm thick
