The Best Huevos Rancheros An Easy Authentic Mexican Recipes

AUTHENTIC HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, and jalapeño. Process until pureed.
• In a medium saucepan, warm the 2 teaspoons of canola oil over medium-high heat. When the oil appears to ripple add the salsa. Stir constantly for 3-5 minutes, allowing the salsa to thicken slightly. Pour the salsa into a bowl, salt if needed, and return the pan to the burner without cleaning it.
• Add the beans, water, coffee, adobo sauce, cumin, and garlic to the salsa pan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly and smashing the beans (note: I find using a wooden cooking spoon works well for this). Cook for 3-4 minutes until the liquid begins to incorporate into the mixture, thickening the beans. Remove from heat and allow to sit (beans will continue to thicken). Salt if needed.
• In a small skillet, add 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining canola oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add a tortilla and allow it to warm for about 30 seconds, flip and warm on the opposite side for 30 seconds. Remove from the pan and place on an individual serving plate. Repeat, using more oil as needed, until four of the tortillas are each on serving plates. Continue warming the remaining four tortillas in the same manner and set aside.
• In a large skillet, fry the eggs or scramble them (your choice). Divide the refried beans evenly (about 1/4 cup per serving) and spread a serving on each tortilla on the serving plates. Top with an egg (careful not to break the yolk if fried eggs), a serving of salsa (note: there will be more salsa then needed for each serving), cilantro leaves and a sprinkle of queso fresco. Fold each of the remaining four warmed tortillas and add one to each plate for sopping up the dish.

Steps:

• SALSA

• Add 2 tablespoons of water.

• Simmer for about 10 minutes until the salsa is deep red in color and has thickened slightly.
• Salt to taste.
• TORTILLAS
• Pour 1/2 cup of cooking oil into a medium sized frying pan. The oil should be about 1/4 inch deep.
• Heat the oil to medium hot.
• Place the tortillas in the oil and fry for about 20 seconds on both sides. Fry them one at a time. Don't allow the tortilla to harden.
• Drain the tortillas of excess oil on paper towles and set aside.
• SUNNY SIDE UP EGGS
• Use the same cooking oil that you used to fry the tortillas to cook the eggs. Maintain the oil medium hot.
• Add two eggs to the hot oil and slightly tilt the pan to one side so that the eggs set closely together.
• Cook until the white are just cooked through and the yolks are still runny.
• SERVING
• Place 2 tortillas on your serving plate and add a good sized spoonful of refried beans.
• Gently place the eggs on the tortillas.
• Spoon the warm spicy tomato salsa over the eggs.
• Garnish the beans with 3 tortilla chips.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas one at a time until firm, but not crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain grease.
• Meanwhile, combine the refried beans and butter in a microwave-safe dish. Cover, and cook in the microwave until heated through. When tortillas are done, fry eggs over easy in the skillet. Add more oil if the tortillas have absorbed it all.
• Place tortillas onto plates, and spread a layer of beans on them. Top with cheese, a fried egg, crumbled bacon and if desired, salsa.
