In the same saucepan we will pour water again to cook the whole peeled carrots until when we prick them we see that they are soft. Drain and let cool. In that same water we now cook the peas for a couple of minutes and with the help of a strainer we take them out.
Now we will make a French omelette with the eggs and add a little sugar and a small splash of soy. Mix well and cook until done. Later we reserve it. Now we will cut cubes of york ham, the tortilla and the carrot.
