Start your day with a delicious and convenient breakfast by making sous vide breakfast burritos filled with eggs and sausage. This method ensures perfectly cooked eggs and flavorful sausage, all wrapped up in a portable meal.
Ingredients Needed
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 pound breakfast sausage
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or oil
Preparation Steps
First, cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper, then pour into a vacuum-sealable bag or a jar suitable for sous vide cooking. Add the cooked sausage and chopped onions if using.
Seal the bag using a vacuum sealer or the displacement method with a zip-top bag. Set your sous vide cooker to 167°F (75°C) and cook the bag submerged for 45 minutes. This will gently cook the eggs and meld the flavors.
Assembling the Burritos
Once cooked, carefully remove the bag from the water bath. Open the bag and give the eggs and sausage a gentle stir. Warm the tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave. Spoon the egg and sausage mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and roll into burritos.
Serving Suggestions
Enjoy your sous vide breakfast burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil and store in the refrigerator for a quick breakfast on busy mornings. Reheat in the microwave or oven for a warm, satisfying meal. Add salsa, hot sauce, or avocado for extra flavor.
