Step 1- lets make a warm tomato salsa or sauce
Heat 2 teaspoon oil on med hi heat
Add ½ cup sliced onion and saute for few minutes
Add ½ cup sliced green pepper, whatever non spicy green pepper you have on hand will do.
And saute for few mins.

Then add 2 teaspoon minced garlic and cook till fragrant
Add 1 cup tomato chunks and cook for few minutes
Add ½ teaspoon dried oregano and cook for a minute
Add ½ cup canned tomato sauce and cook for couple minutes
Add water as needed, we don’t want it too watery,
It will be a thick tomato base
Add 1 bay leaf and cook for 2 minutes

Add ½ cup each red pepper and green pepper cut into chunks
I added 2 chipotle peppers for some heat.
Add water as needed
Cover and cook for 10 minutes on med heat, stir time to time
Season with some salt and pepper
Add a handful freshly chopped cilantro
Remove the tomato salsa in a bowl and let it cool. Separate the bay leaf

Step 2- Making refried beans- which actually means cooking the beans twice
In the same pan add 2 teaspoon cooking oil on med heat.
Add ¼ cup diced onions and saute for a minute
Add 1 and half cup cooked pinto beans. I used canned pinto beans.
Add ¼ cup water.
Add ¼ teaspoon cumin powder, and ¼ teaspoon coriander powder and cook for 5 minutes.
Then using a masher, mash the beans till they are kind pasty

So what is refried beans or twice cooked beans- its boiling the beans first and then cooking it again..in simple terms. Beans can be soaked and boiled separately from scratch, In my case the canned beans served the purpose of boiled beans.
Add a knob of butter to the mashed beans, season with salt and pepper and remove

Step 3- making fresh guacamole
Cut the avocado in half, then slice them horizontally and vertically, it will create small chunks. Scoop the avocado in a bowl.
Squeeze some lime juice about 2 teaspoon
Add 1 teaspoon diced red onion, 2 teaspoon deseeded diced jalapenos, ¼ teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon chopped cilantro, season with salt and pepper
And ¼ teaspoon cayenne for some heat
Mix well till smooth

Step 4- making fresh tomato salsa
In food processor, add ½ cup roughly chopped tomato
1 teaspoon deseeded diced jalapeno, 1 and half teaspoon diced red onion
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 clove garlic chopped
Blitz few times and that’s it, salsa is ready

Step 5 -Finishing the warm tomato salsa
Put the cooked tomato salsa in a blender and blend till smooth

Step 6 – Making tostadas, fried corn tortillas
On med hi heat, add ¼ teaspoon oil. Add the corn tortillas, shallow till cripy, about 2 to 3 minutes per side

Step 7- frying the eggs
In the same pan crack an egg and fry them till your liking on med heat. I cooked mine for 2 minutes

Step 8- Now lets put everything together.
First We will put a layer of fried mashed beans on the tostadas, then a layer of the warm tomato salsa
Then put the eggs on top
Some fresh guacamole and salsa on the side.

And there you go…huevos rancheros.
