How to make Flamenco Eggs:

- When the peas are cooked, drain them well.
- Once you have sautéed the chorizo and the ham, add the peas, let them cook for a few minutes so that they take on the flavors.
- Add the fried tomato and leave again for a few minutes. When all the flavors have blended, turn off.
- Take the clay pots and distribute the sauce among them.
- Put the pans on the baking tray. Add a tablespoon of fried tomato in the middle of each pot.
- It is optional, but when you put it in the oven it will dry out more, so with a little more tomato it will be juicier.
- Add an egg to each pan. Break them into a separate bowl to make sure they are good and then add them to the pots.
- Put the plate in the oven at 180ºC and leave it until the eggs are cooked. The cooking point of the eggs will be as you like, well done or little.
