Eggs Motul Style Recipe

Eggs served on top of a corn tortilla spread with refried beans

Ingredients for 2 servings:

4 eggs
4 corn tortillas (a day old)*
1/3 Cup vegetable oil
1 Habanero pepper
1/2 medium red onion minced**
1/2 cup refried black beans
2 Medium size tomatoes, diced (about 3 cups)
salt to taste
1/2 cup cooked green peas
1/3 cup of queso añejo or fresh crumbled cheese***
4 slices of cooked ham diced
1 plantain cut in diagonal slices and fried.
 
NOTES:
* Day old tortillas absorb less oil and take less time to fry.
** If red onion is not available, use white onion.
*** You can use any other dry crumbling cheese.
****If you are making more than 2 servings, turn your oven at 250 to keep the already cooked eggs warm while you finish cooking the rest of the eggs.
 
1. In a frying pan at medium high heat, warm one teaspoon of oil and add the onion and habanero pepper (whole). Fry until onion is transparent, making sure the Habanero pepper doesn’t burst. The Habanero pepper will render its flavor to the sauce this way without adding spiciness.
2.  Add the diced tomatoes and cook for about 7 minutes until the tomatoes have release all their juices and formed a thick sauce. Season with salt and set aside.
3. Start gathering all your ingredients to assembly the dish and have them ready for serving once the eggs and tortillas are fried.
4. Heat the rest of the oil in the frying pan and start frying the tortillas one by one. Fry the tortillas until they are a little crispy, this way they will hold the egg and sauce without breaking into pieces. Place each tortilla over a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
5. Once all your tortillas had been fried, arrange 2 in each plate and spread the refried beans over the tortillas.
6. In the same skillet where you fried the tortillas start frying the eggs, you can cook them over easy or sunny side up, that will be your personal choice. Place and egg over each tortilla. When all the eggs are cooked, cover them with the tomato sauce, leaving the egg yolk uncover if you wish. Garnish with the ham, peas, cheese and fried plantains. Serve warm.
