Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces tortillas (corn or flour)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup refried beans
- 4 large eggs
- 1.5 cups tomato sauce
- 1 piece jalapeño, diced
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup queso fresco or crumbled feta cheese
- 1 piece lime, cut into wedges
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Lightly fry each tortilla for about 1 minute per side until crisp and golden. Set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In the same skillet, add a splash of oil if needed and sauté the diced jalapeño, chopped onion, and minced garlic until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the cumin, chili powder, and tomato sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and keep warm.
Warm the refried beans in a small saucepan or microwave until soft enough to spread. Set aside.
In a separate skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny (or to your preferred doneness). This should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the skillet carefully to avoid breaking the yolks.
To assemble, place one fried tortilla on each plate. Spread a layer of warm refried beans over the tortilla, followed by a spoonful of the ranchero sauce. Gently place a fried egg on top.
Spoon additional ranchero sauce over the eggs and garnish with sliced avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for added brightness.
