Recipe information

Huevos Rancheros – the perfect Mexican breakfast dish!  Try these deliciously bold, hot and spicy flavours on a bright summers morning – you won’t be disappointed.

Method

Prepare the tomato salsa by combining the cherry tomatoes, red onion and 1/2 lime juice and in a bowl. Season with sea salt to taste and then set aside at room temperature until needed.

Once the salsa has been made, heat a small non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the eggs.

Lower the heat and scramble the eggs slowly until you have a thick but loosely scrambled egg mixture.

Remove from the heat immediately and season with sea salt and ground black pepper.

Remove skin and core from Avocado and mash in a bowl. Add a large pinch of chilli peppers, squeeze of lime and pinch of salt and pepper.

Smear each corn tortilla with a heaping tablespoon of Avocado, then spoon in the scrambled eggs.

Scatter the tomato salsa on top and garnish with finely chopped red chilli peppers and lime wedges.
