Ingredients
 
 

For the rancheros sauce:

  • 3 tomatoes cubed
  • 3 serrano chiles sliced
  • 1/4 onions chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons pepper for the sauce

For the eggs and tortillas:

  • 4 tablespoons oil
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoons pepper

For the beans:

  • 1/2 tablespoons oil
  • 440 g beans canned

Instructions
 

  • Turn on the heat to medium and heat up 1 tablespoon of oil in either a comal or a large saucepan. Toss in the onion and garlic and fry until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and chilli and simmer for 10 minutes. Add some water to give the sauce a soupy consistency, cover and cook until bubbling. Set aside.
  • Once cooled, add the contents of the pan to a blender and blend to a nice, homogenous texture.
  • Next add some more oil to the pan and heat the sauce back up on a medium flame. Fry it for about 5 minutes, then season and set aside.
  • In a separate pan or skillet fry the corn tortillas in a bit of oil for 1 minute on each side. Drain the excess oil on kitchen paper and set aside.
  • In the same pan, fry the eggs and season to taste.
  • Stir the canned beans in a pan with a little oil until heated throughout.
  • Serve two tortillas in a wide, flat dish, place two eggs on top and serve with ranchera sauce and beans.

Enjoy!
