Then add the potatoes, sprinkle with cayenne and salt, combining mixture well. Cook covered for about 10 minutes or until potatoes are just cooked. In another frying pan, cook the chorizo for a few minutes then add to potato mixture along with the dill.

Place the potato mixture in the cake tin, layering the potato slices. Flatten with a spatula. Pour over the beaten eggs and sprinkle over parmesan. Bake at 180C for 30 minutes. Allow to set before turning out on to a plate. Cut into slices to serve and garnish with extra dill.
