1
Heat oil in a pan and add potatoes. Cover and steam-fry for about 4 minutes until the exterior begins to show some char.
2
Uncover the pan and add the chorizo and onions, stirring well.
3
Add the chopped jalapeños and serranos to taste, stirring to distribute evenly.
4
Continue cooking and stirring to ensure even heating. Test the potatoes with a silicone spatula—they should be nearly done when they break easily.
5
Add the tomatoes and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic.
6
Turn off the heat to stop further steaming and preserve the light crispy texture on the outside. Serve with salsa on the side.
