HUEVOS RANCHEROS (TEX-MEX)



Huevos Rancheros (Tex-Mex) image

Love to make this once an awhile instead of breakfast tacos, especially with house guests. It's so easy, but it will look like you slaved over a hot stove all morning. The sauce can be made in advance to make things go even quicker.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup onion (diced)
1/4 cup green bell pepper (diced)
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 jalapeno (minced)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (10 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 -2 tablespoon tomato paste
2 teaspoons white vinegar (optional)
1 tablespoon butter
8 eggs
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (10 ounce) can refried beans (with jalapenos)
1 -2 link chorizo sausage
12 -20 flour tortillas
1 cup cheddar cheese (grated)

Steps:

  • Sauce: Sauté onions, bell peppers, garlic, and jalapeno in olive oil until onions are soft. Keep the temp low as to not burn the garlic. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 15 minutes. Start with one tablespoon of paste. If still too thin, add more. Keep warm if using right away, otherwise reheat when ready.
  • Eggs: This is the best way to make perfect over-easy eggs. For this meal, it's best to make them last. Melt butter in frying pan that has a lid. When butter is getting frothy, gently crack eggs so you don't break the yokes. Salt and pepper to taste. When whites are set, turn up the heat slightly, pour the water in between the eggs, and cover. Remove lid and serve as soon as the "skin" has set over the yokes. This only takes 30 seconds to a minute, so keep an eye on them.
  • Sides: Remove from casing and brown chorizo, remove and reserve the grease. Fry the refried beans in the chorizo drippings until soft and bubbly. Salt and pepper to taste. Add cooked chorizo and stir. Add a little water if to keep the beans thin and a little soupy.
  • Meanwhile, warm tortillas on a hot griddle. About one minute per side. Keep warm.
  • To serve: Place two eggs on one side of the plate. Spoon refried beans on the other--if they are the right consistancy they should spread to cover their side of the plate. Top and surround the eggs generously with the sauce. All but the rim of the plate should covered with eggs, sauce, and beans. Sprinkle cheese on the beans. Serve with several warm tortillas for scooping on the side.

HUEVOS RANCHEROS



Huevos Rancheros image

Fried eggs on warm corn tortillas, topped with cooked tomato salsa - it's a classic dish, though I probably make it a little differently than they do at your neighborhood Tex-Mex restaurant. This recipe makes for an easy supper or a great Mexican breakfast.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     breakfast, easy, quick, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 corn tortillas
2 pounds fresh ripe tomatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 to 3 serrano or jalapeño chiles, seeded for a milder sauce, and chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled, halved, green shoots removed
1/2 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons canola oil
Salt to taste
4 to 8 eggs (to taste)
Chopped cilantro for garnish

Steps:

  • Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil, and heat in a 350-degree oven while you prepare the salsa and fry the eggs.
  • Place the tomatoes, chiles, garlic and onion in a blender and puree, retaining a bit of texture.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the canola oil over high heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet, until a drop of puree will sizzle when it hits the pan. Add the puree and cook, stirring, for four to ten minutes, until the sauce thickens, darkens and leaves a trough when you run a spoon down the middle of the pan. It should just begin to stick to the pan. Season to taste with salt, and remove from the heat. Keep warm while you heat the tortillas and fry the eggs.
  • Warm four plates. Fry the eggs in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. You won't need much oil if you have another nonstick skillet. Use the remaining tablespoon of oil if necessary. Cook them sunny side up, until the whites are solid but the yolks still runny. Season with salt and pepper, and turn off the heat. Place two warm tortillas on each plate, overlapping if you are only serving one egg. Top with one or two fried eggs. Spoon the hot salsa over the whites of the eggs and the tortillas, leaving the yolks exposed if possible. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Beans: Black beans are the most common bean used in huevos rancheros, but you can also use pinto beans or refried beans.
  • Use Fresh Salsa: Fresh salsa is always best, but you can also use a good quality store-bought salsa.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: The eggs should be cooked until they are just set, but not overcooked.
  • Serve with Guacamole and Sour Cream: Guacamole and sour cream are classic accompaniments to huevos rancheros.
  • Top with Cheese: A sprinkle of cheese, such as queso fresco or cheddar cheese, adds a nice touch to huevos rancheros.

Conclusion:
