Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Mushrooms — Clean the mushrooms gently with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt. Avoid washing them as they can become waterlogged.
  • Ham — Use a good quality ham, such as Serrano or Iberico, for the best flavor. If you prefer a smokier taste, you can use smoked ham instead.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of milk or cream to the beaten eggs before pouring them into the skillet.
  • Experiment with different types of mushrooms to vary the flavors and textures of the dish.
  • Serve the Revuelto de Setas y Jamón with a side of fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the dish.
  • Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other ingredients such as roasted red peppers or grated cheese.

Serving advice

Serve the Revuelto de Setas y Jamón hot, straight from the skillet. It is best enjoyed with a slice of crusty bread to soak up the flavorful juices.

Presentation advice

Garnish the dish with a sprig of fresh thyme or parsley to add a pop of color. Serve it in a rustic skillet or on a decorative plate to enhance its visual appeal.
