Рецепт Huevos Rancheros - Mexican Fiesta! #SundaySupper
It's a Mexican Fiesta! Celebrating with #SundaySupper!
In the early hours of September 16th, 1810, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a
priest in the small town of Dolores, Guanajuato, rang the church bell
to gather the townspeople. He called for the people of Mexico to rise up
against the Spanish Crown, thus initiating Mexico's War of
Independence. The country did not achieve independence until 1821, but
it is this event, known as the Grito de Dolores which is commemorated every year in town squares across Mexico.
VIVA MEXICO!
Grab an icy Margarita and let's get the party started!
You might want to start with this hearty breakfast before you start downing those margaritas. I love salsa with my eggs, scrambled or omelets - I always add some salsa or hot sauce. This recipe for Huevos rancheros, the gorgeous mess of fried eggs smothered in a spicy tomato sauce, served over warm tortillas with rice and refried beans has become a favorite on both sides of the border. Saying Buenas Dias with this hearty dish makes it a very good morning indeed.
- 12 plum tomatoes, cored
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 jalapeno, stemmed and minced
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the tomatoes and cook, turning until the skins blacken, 8-10 minutes. This caused a bit of smoke in my kitchen, so I roasted them on the grill.
Peel the tomatoes, puree in a blender, strain through a sieve
or a food mill and set aside.
Heat 1 Tbsp. canola oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, jalapenos, and onions and cook until soft, 6-8 minutes. Add the tomato puree and bring to a boil. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for about 10 minutes until slightly reduced. Keep warm.
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tortillas to the skillet and cook, flipping once, until warmed and slightly golden.
In the same skillet, carefull break 2 eggs into pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper. When whites are set and edges cooked, add 1 Tbsp. water. Cover skillet and cook eggs to desired doneness.
Top each tortilla with a fried egg and tomato sauce. Garnish with pickled jalapeno slices. Serve with rice and refried beans. Add some pico de gallo, montery jack cheese and sour cream to top it all off!
