Casino Alcalá, the best option to enjoy scrambled eggs in Alcalá (Madrid)
What should a good huevos rotos be like? Our proposal at Casino Alcalá
At Casino Alcalá, we know that good "huevos rotos" are much more than just a dish; they are a culinary experience that combines tradition and quality. For us, fresh ingredients and precise technique are essential to achieve the perfect flavour and texture that characterise this Spanish delicacy.
Thus, the secret of excellent huevos rotos starts with the choice of ingredients. Using farm-fresh eggs, with intensely coloured yolks, guarantees an unrivalled flavour. The carefully selected potatoes have to be fried in extra virgin olive oil until they reach the perfect balance between golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Casino Alcalá's huevos rotos are a true gastronomic masterpiece. Carefully prepared, the eggs are fried to perfection, achieving a creamy yolk that spills over a generous portion of golden fried potatoes.
Presentation is crucial for us. We serve the broken eggs on warm plates to maintain the ideal temperature, and break them just before reaching the table, allowing the yolk to flow over the potatoes and the accompaniments, in our case, the ham.
The elegant and inviting atmosphere of Casino Alcalá perfectly complements the experience, making every meal special.
