From Mike's Notebook
Microwave the potatoes whole and unpeeled — they cook faster and stay firmer than boiling.
Scramble the eggs with cheese before they hit the pan — they'll distribute evenly through the chorizo.
Keep flipping after heat's off until the pan cools; the residual heat sets the eggs perfectly.
