Huevos rancheros (Mexican eggs)

Posted by Sarah Duff on 26 January 2011

This recipe serves two.

Ingredients

  • 4 free-range eggs
  • 1 tin of peeled and chopped tomatoes
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 4 tortillas
  • Fresh coriander
  • 1 avocado
  • Dried chilli flakes
  • Dried oregano

Cooking instructions

To make the salsa, fry the onion until soft and add the tomatoes. Turn up the heat until bubbling and then turn down to a simmer. Keep stirring occasionally until the salsa has thickened and then add a pinch each of chilli and oregano and season with black pepper.

Fry the eggs sunny-side up. At the same time, fry the tortillas on each side for a minute or two. For each serving, put two tortillas on a plate and cover with the salsa and two fried eggs. Serve with a sliced avocado and a handful of fresh coriander.

Recipe tip

You can also serve the eggs rolled up in a tortilla like a burrito, with feta crumbled on top.
