Original Huevos Rancheros

Huevos rancheros are a staple on the Mexican breakfast table. Choose very fresh eggs. Huevos rancheros are basically sunny-side-up eggs served on fried corn tortillas and topped with a red or green ranchera sauce to taste; or both sauces, green on one egg and red on the other. In that case, they are called HUEVOS DIVORCIADOS. There are as many versions of huevos rancheros as there are families and cooks. Everyone can choose the one they like best. Wash the eggs before cracking them. Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick pan, and cook them one at a time. Once the oil is hot, carefully crack the shell and let the egg fall into the pan, making sure it doesn't break.

Huevos Rancheros by #diningwithdaveh Huevos Rancheros by #diningwithdaveh
I've been hearing talk of huevos rancheros for a long time, so finally decided to give them a go, adding my own twist! You can add chillis to taste, but I'd recommend using at least one... For a really special taste, use black truffle salt and freshly cracked black pepper... Enjoy!! DiningWithDaveH -
