Serves: Serves 2
Ingredients
For the salsa:
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ red onion, finely diced
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 red chilli, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 flame-roasted pepper, diced
  • 1 x 440g can diced tomatoes
  • 2 tsp worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp chopped coriander (cilantro)
To serve:
  • 4 x corn tortillas
  • 2 fried eggs (or more, if you feel like it)
  • cotija cheese (feta is good too)
  • avocado
  • more coriander (cilantro)
  • optional: refried beans
Instructions
  1. First, make the salsa. Heat the olive oil in a small pan and add the onion and salt. Cook over a medium heat until the onion starts to soften, then add the chilli and garlic.
  2. When the garlic is just beginning to turn golden, add in the roasted pepper and tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is almost totally evaporated, and you have a salsa-y texture.
  3. Add the worcestershire sauce and coriander, stir through and then turn off the heat and set aside.
  4. To serve, heat the corn tortillas in a dry frying pan, or char them over an open flame if you have one. Keep them warm, wrapped in a tea towel, if you need to.
  5. Fry as many eggs as you like in a little olive oil, and then serve up, layering each plate with a tortilla, some salsa, and refried beans if you're using them. Then another tortilla, more salsa, your egg and as much avocado, coriander and cotija cheese as you like. Dig in!
