Saun's Huevos Rancheros With Fresh Salsa Rosa

When preparing an egg sunny-side up, covering the skillet helps to cook both the yolk and the white.

Type: Eggs
Courses: Breakfast
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 tablespoon 15mlCorn oil - more if necessary
4   Corn tortillas - (4" to 6" dia)
4 teaspoons 20mlUnsalted butter
4 teaspoons 20mlEggs (large)
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
1 cup 237mlFresh Salsa Rosa - (see recipe)
  = (make a day ahead, serve at room
  Temperature)
1/4 cup 59mlGrated sharp Cheddar or
  Monterey Jack cheese - (optional)

Recipe Instructions

Place 1 tablespoon of oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and warm each of the tortillas for about 2 1/2 minutes per side, or until they start to color and soften, adding more oil as necessary. Drain on paper towels. Place a tortilla on each of 4 dinner plates.

Melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. When the butter is foaming, break an egg into the skillet and fry it sunny-side up. (Do not flip the egg.) Cover the skillet during the last 1 1/2 minutes to set the egg white. Season with salt and pepper. Place the egg on top of a tortilla. Repeat with the remaining butter and eggs.

Top each egg with 1/4 cup of the Fresh Salsa Rosa and, if desired, 1 tablespoon of cheese. Serve.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
