SPANISH MIGAS
Here's a simple tapas dish thats big on flavour. Can be eaten the traditional Spanish way with fried eggs & sliced fried Spanish chorizo for breakfast/supper. Or a tasty alternative to croutons, sprinkled on salads. It is better to use at least 2 day old bread, use the crusts too, but do dice very small or even make into breadcrumbs - just make sure it doesn't burn. Smoked bacon is better to use that plain bacon as it goes so well with the garlic. Use olive oil rather than extra virgin olive oil, use enough oil to cover the bottom of a big heavy bottomed pan. Stir the breadcrumbs constantly to make sure they're evenly coated in oil. I use a pair of scissors to cut the smoked bacon & I always use streaky (around 8-10 rashers) As for parsley I add that right at the very end just before it's served on to plates or tapas dishes. Optional. A fried egg & sliced fried chozio placed on top of the migas makes a delicious breakfast/supper. I first tried "Migas" back in 1988 while on holiday in Blanes. We stayed in a huge apartment in a Spanish complex - imagine the aroma while travelling up & down in the lifts......garlic, sausage, fish - there was something different on each floor. At the time of 1988 Blanes was very much a traditional Spanish fishing village, with only a handful of other nationalities. So eating out was tapas, steak restaurants or the typical American style burger joints. So we stuck to Spanish & coped very well with the abundant colourful & tasty tapas dishes available. Back in 1988 there was no translated text in several languages to accomodate our lack of not learning the lingo, so it was a case of choosing from a book of photographs & hoping for the best. Thankfully, 21 years on & the lingo has come on in leaps & bounds. The food is still fabulous, if not better & at least I can now ask for tapas & no longer have to point to a photgraph. Anyway, it's delicious - try it I'm sure you'll love it!

MIGAS - SPANISH STYLE
These are not the Tex-Mex version of Migas, these are authentic Spanish Migas. Both styles are delicious, they are simply different. The best bread for migas is a peasant bread with a very dense crumb. Open crumb breads like baguettes or ciabattas are not good for migas. Stale bread works best. Migas is a poor man's dish. I have included mesurements, but I don't use them, and you shouldn't be bound by them. Just cook it, love it, and eat it:) Note: Overnight time is included in prep time.

Steps:
- Dice bread up small.
- Place bread in a large bowl and sprinkle with enough water to moisten bread.
- Sprinkle with salt and stir.
- Sprinkle with paprika and stir.
- Cover with damp cloth and leave to sit overnight.
- The next morning heat the olive oil in a deep skillet, over medium heat.
- Cut the garlic cloves in half and throw in the oil until lightly brown, then discard.
- Add the crumbled chorizo, ham and bacon, cook until almost done.
- Add the cubed bread with its seasoning.
- Toss the bread so that it thoroughly soaks up the oil and begins to crisp on the outside.
- The bread will turn red from the paprika, this is good.
- You want the bread to be crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside. (This is the secret to good migas!).
- For Migas de Vendimia, add grapes to your migas:) This would be done in wine growing areas at harvest time.

- To start with the best Migas recipe you have to prepare the crumbs, which is recommended to do the night before. Crumble the bread and sprinkle it with a little water (make it slightly damp but not completely wet). Let it sit covered overnight.
- The next day, grab a pan and put enough oil to cover the bottom. Heat the oil and fry the bacon cut into strips (whatever size you want, I recommend an inch wide). Cook until golden brown and add the sliced chorizo.
- Cook the chorizo until it is tender and golden, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the chorizo and bacon from the pan and set them aside for now. Leave the cooking oil in the pan to reuse it.
- In the pan put 6 cloves of garlic (peeled but not minced), and cook until golden brown for about 3 minutes. Add the breadcrumbs and stir.
