Meanwhile, cook the tortillas on a dry griddle or in a skillet; keep warm.

Spoon on ranchero sauce, divide the cheese between the omelets and place under the broiler until cheese is melted. Transfer omelets to serving plates, cut the tortillas into sixths and arrange decoratively around omelets. Top with sour cream and a sprig of cilantro.
