Huevos Rancheros
Huevos Rancheros
4 corn tortillas
2 or 3 Tbsp canola or olive oil
4 eggs
Salt & pepper
1 cup red or green chile salsa
1/2 cup shredded white or longhorn cheese
Heat oil in a skillet large enough to hold a corn tortilla
Fry each tortilla tender-crisp, about 30 seconds per side
Drain each & keep warm in paper towels
Discard all but a trace of any remaining oil & reduce heat to warm
Have the shelled eggs ready to slip into pan without breaking yolks
Cook only until whites are set, seasoning with salt & pepper to taste
Quickly place 1 egg per tortilla & keep warm while quickly heating salsa in the same skillet
Pour salsa over eggs
Top with cheese, which will melt as eggs are served
Serve with hot refried beans & a small mound of Chorizo (Mexican sausage)
