[edit] Unsatisfied
I have read this article three times, and I still have little idea what "migas" is.
I have learned that it is a breakfast dish, that it uses leftover bread or tortillas, and that, in Texas at least, it is an egg dish. (I also learned that some nobody on another nobody's television show likes it.) I might like it too, if I knew what it was. I'd recommend that this article be sent back to the drawing board. Without knowing more about the subject, I am powerless to improve this foolishness. PeterHuntington 22:57, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] IPA
I also believe the IPA is incorrect: [ɰ] is a velar approximant not found in Spanish. It should probably be [ɣ], the voiced velar fricative which is an allophone of <g> in Spanish. Jogloran 04:31, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] My 2cents
I read the article and agree that it is insufficient. My aunt who is Spanish and who's parents are from Spain has made this dish for me and i do enjoy making this for my self and friends. In my personal experience the recipe is an approximation and consists of Bacon, Corn tortillas, and Eggs. Cooked in that order. You cook the bacon(higher in fat the better) until its pretty crispy(lay aside for later when cooked). Then you cut the corn tortillas into squares and "fry" them in the bacon grease. You want it to soak up the grease with out burning the tortilla and that varies on the amount of tortilla you use. Then you can put the tortilla aside with the bacon. The eggs are prepared as if your making scrambled eggs and once they are about 25% cook you add the bacon and the tortilla then finish cooking the eggs as if they were scrambled eggs. Then you eat. Something my aunt does is she warms up corn tortillas so we can make a burrito type thing. There are different recipes but this is your basic recipe and all the other ones are just variations off of this.
Also the pronunciation is pretty close to what it sounds like when my aunt says it(with a thick y/h sound for the g).
