EGGS RANCHERO RECIPES

Steps:

• SALSA
• Roughly chop the tomatoes, onion, garlic and serrano chile.
• Add to your blender jar.
• Add 1/2 teaspoon thyme to the blender jar.
• Add 2 tablespoons of water.
• Blend until smooth. About 1 minute.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a saucepan to hot.
• Carefully, pour the contents of the blender into the saucepan with the hot oil. (Be careful, the liquid tends to spatter.)
• 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.
