Expert Tips That I Recommend
- First, you need to properly ground the chorizo. It turns into slightly browned and caramelized crisps.
- Cook mushrooms in batches; do not overcrowd them. Mushrooms release a lot of water, and overcrowding can create a steam effect instead of proper browning.
- Make sure the eggs are well beaten into the butter before you add them.
- You need to add crème fraiche after the eggs are cooked. It adds a creamy texture and slightly tangy flavor without making eggs watery.
- Always heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until they are soft.
Recipe Variation for Different Diets
- Keto Version: Instead of corn tortillas and flour tortillas, swap shallots for green onions. Check whether regular chorizo and salsa verde are sugar-free.
- Gluten-Free Version: Swap regular salsa verde and chorizo with gluten-free salsa verde and chorizo. Make sure to check whether pico de gallo and crème fraîche are gluten-free.

Storing And Reheating This Recipe
Storing
- Allow the taco and filling to cool down completely. Then wrap it in foil, place it in an airtight container, and put the filling in a separate container to keep the tortillas from getting soggy.
- Then keep it in the refrigerator. Make sure you consume it within 3-4 days.
Reheating
- Oven: First, preheat the oven to 350degrees F. Then add the filling to an oven-safe dish and cover it lightly with foil. Now heat it well for 15 minutes. Then you can add the tortillas to it, wrap them in a damp kitchen towel, and heat for 8-10 minutes.
- Stovetop: Take a skillet, add the tortillas, and heat them. Then you can heat the filling and assemble it. You need to gently warm for 20-30 seconds. But you need to keep checking in between to prevent it from overheating.

FAQs About Gordon Ramsay’s Tacos
How do I prevent scrambled eggs from turning dry?
You can prevent eggs from drying out by cooking them over medium-low heat. You need to remove the pan from the heat while the eggs are still glossy, as the residual heat will finish cooking them.
Why are my mushrooms watery?
The mushrooms usually remain watery when they are overcrowded in a pan. Cook mushroom portions once, then let the moisture evaporate without turning them watery.
How can I make tacos crispy?
When you assemble the tacos, lightly toast them in a dry skillet; this way you can enjoy crispy tacos.
Why is the taco soggy?
The tacos usually turn soggy when there is excess moisture from mushrooms, crème fraiche, or pico de gallo. To cook these ingredients thoroughly, evaporate the water completely or drain the excess water from them before adding them to the tacos.
