  3. Bring your griddle plate over the fire up to med/high temperature (or pan if using a gas stove)
  4. Sauté the potato first until starting to get soft and golden
  5. Whilst the potato is cooking add the chorizo turning it all regularly so as not to burn
  6. Add remaining capsicum, paprika, onion garlic and chilli and cook till soft
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste
  8. Lastly as you go to poach the eggs lay the spinach over the top to wilt as you poach the eggs
  9. Poach your eggs on a rolling boil in the seasoned water and vinegar for 3 minutes (see tip below for poaching
  10. Dish up and enjoy!
  11. Tip- for poaching the eggs, vinegar helps set the white of the egg to give it the nice shape. To help this along swirl the water and crack the egg into the middle of the swirl on a good simmer/rolling boil cook for 3 minutes. If you are not keen on poaching the eggs, fried eggs will do just as well!
