Spicy bacon and tomato brunch

The spicy bacon and tomato brunch is a delicious combination that has gained popularity in several Latin American countries, thanks to its balance of intense and fresh flavors. This recipe has its roots in home kitchens where bacon, highly valued for its flavor and texture, is mixed with fresh ingredients like tomatoes and spices that add a spicy touch. In countries like Mexico and Colombia, it is often known as "Spicy breakfast with bacon and tomato," while in Argentina it may be called "Bacon brunch with tomato sauce." Its versatility and flavor make it a popular option for both breakfasts and light lunches, reflecting the fusion of culinary traditions and local products.

In addition to being a simple preparation, this dish stands out for its combination of ingredients that awaken the appetite and offer a comforting gastronomic experience. The use of ginger and garlic not only provides a delightful aroma but also enhances the flavor of the bacon and tomatoes, creating a thick and tasty sauce that is best enjoyed on freshly made toast.

How to prepare Spicy Bacon and Tomato Brunch

To begin, cut the bacon into small strips and add it to the saucepan.

Cook over medium heat until the bacon is golden and crispy.

Finely chop the onion and garlic.

Add the onion and garlic to the saucepan and fry with ginger until they are soft and translucent.

When the vegetables are cooked, open the plum tomatoes and cut them into small pieces.

Add the tomatoes along with their juice to the saucepan; season with salt and pepper to taste.

The secret of this recipe is to continue cooking over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the tomato juice reduces to a thick sauce.

When the desired thickness is reached, serve over toast, as it truly awakens the taste buds.
