Equipment

  • Frying pan
  • Saucepan
  • Spatula
  • Knife and chopping board
  • Blender (for making fresh salsa)

Ingredients
  

  • 8 corn tortillas: cut into wedges
  • 1 cup of green or red salsa
  • 1/2 cup of queso fresco or shredded cheese
  • 2 eggs: optional, fried or scrambled
  • 1 avocado: sliced for garnish
  • 1/4 cup of chopped onions
  • 1/4 cup of sour cream
  • Fresh cilantro and lime for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Fry the tortillas: Heat oil in a pan and fry the tortilla wedges until crispy.
  • Prepare the salsa: If you're making fresh salsa, blend tomatillos or tomatoes with onions, garlic, and chilies.
  • Simmer the tortillas: Toss the fried tortilla chips into a saucepan and cover them with your salsa. Simmer for 5 minutes until the chips soften slightly but still retain some crunch.
  • Fry the eggs: Fry or scramble the eggs, adding salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble: Place the salsa-soaked tortillas on a plate, top with fried eggs, crumbled cheese, chopped onions, cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with avocado slices and lime.
  • Serve: Enjoy immediately while hot.
