Instructions
On medium heat, cut a thin slice of butter in a skillet and let melt. Add the sausage links. Let sizzle, turning as each side goldens.
Meanwhile, scramble the egg and season with salt and pepper.
When the links are almost done, cut them in half-inch chunks and cook until done, golden and crispy.
Turn the heat down to med-low. Scrape the skillet to remove any browned sausage bits, then add in the eggs and cheddar cheese, and gently stir until mixed with sausages and eggs are at the desired consistency. (The trick to perfect scrambled eggs is never to stop stirring them when cooking.)
When the eggs are done, turn the heat off and top with a sprinkle of more cheese to melt. Grab your tortilla, and put the egg mixture in on one half, then add any sauces (we love garlic periperi sauce with this).
You can put the tortilla in the skillet to crisp up if you prefer or leave it as is. Either is good!
