Spain. In Central Spain the traditional breakfast is chocolate con churros — hot chocolate with Spanish-style fritters, which are extruded sticks of doughnut-like dough with a star-shaped profile covered in sugar. The chocolate drink is made very thick and sweet. In Madrid, churros are somewhat smaller and shaped like a charity ribbon. This meal is normally served in cafeterias. In the South and West is more common for breakfast to have a cup of coffee (usually with milk) and toasts with either olive oil and salt, or tomato, though sometimes butter and jam are used. The quicker breakfast replaces toasts with galletas (a type of cookies made with flour, sugar, oil and vanilla flavour), madalenas (a Spanish version of the French madeleines made with oil instead of butter) or buns.

SPAIN (desayuno) and PORTUGAL (café da manhã)

Probably the most common breakfast in Spain and Portugal is a roll with butter and jam and a cup of milk-rich coffee.

Spain is the country responsible for bringing chocolate from the New World to Europe, and she reflects her culinary and colonial history in the fact that chocolate is a more common beverage for adults there than in other countries. One popular and indulgent breakfast combination is chocolate con churros; thick hot chocolate served with a sort of deep-fried tubular doughnut coated with cinnamon sugar. Aficionados dunk the churro into the chocolate before each bite.

In Catalan, olive country, bread is often served with olive oil instead of butter, and a favorite breakfast treat is pan con tomate, an ancestor of the American pizza. It is made by brushing a thick, crusty slice of grilled bread with olive oil, garlic, tomato, and (sometimes) topping it with a slice of ham. Fried eggs and omelets are also popular.

Tortilla de guineitos
Banana breakfast omelet

1 very ripe banana (an every day banana, or 3 guineitos niños - dwarf or finger bananas)
1 egg
oil for frying

Peel and slice the guineitos into thin slices. Fry them in medium oil (see fig. 1 below), turning after they begin to get soft and brown. Fry the other side a few minutes. When almost done use a spatula to squish them down and cut them up. When ready for eggs they should look like fig.2 below. Add a scrambled egg and cook until done. The finished tortillas should look like the first picture on top. Serve with French or Italian toasted and buttered bread slices and café con leche. This is a typical meal, you can serve it for breakfast, for lunch, for dinner as a side dish, or for snack.

It's yummies!!!

What about some Huevos Rancheros. Eggs Country Style
Cut a small tomato, Slice 1/4 of green or red sweet pepper, and 1/2 onion in slices; using a spoon of margarine or vegetable oil fried them slowly for 6 to 7 minutes on a low flame, then: put 2 or 3 eggs on top of the sofrito that you made from the onion tomatoes and pepper, put the stove on medium flame and cover until the yolks of the eggs are cooked. Serve them with hash browns and toast bread; it is a very healthy breakfast

Spanish breakfast is small and usually consists of a cup of coffee with a slice of toast and jam (almost exclusively apricot, for some reason), a pastry or churros. Churros are often served with chocolate instead of coffee.

Freshly squeezed orange juice is popular and surprisingly common - even the smallest bar will invariably have an orange squeezer. This usually pushes the price of the breakfast up by quite a bit - just your coffee and toast/pastry will usually cost 1.50-1.80€, the juice doubles the price.

Types of Coffee:
Café solo Espresso, the standard form of coffee in Spain - if you want lots of water in it you could ask for it to be added (con agua caliente) but you might get laughed at. Seriously!

Café con leche Espresso with milk added. The most popular form of coffee in Spain.

Cafe cortado Espresso with a drop of milk.

Cafe manchado A little coffee and a lot of milk.
More like coffee flavored milk than a proper coffee.

Café descafeinado Decaff coffee. You can ask for it from the machine (de maquina or from a sachet (de sobre.

Café con hielo An espresso and a glass of ice. You're supposed to pour the espresso over the ice, but I wouldn't recommend it.
