MEXICAN BREAKFAST, HAM, HUEVOS RANCHEROS, BEANS, TORTILLAS, CHICHARONES



Mexican Breakfast, Ham, Huevos Rancheros, Beans, Tortillas, Chicharones image

When we were growing up this is what we would eat; a typical Mexican Breakfast, consisted of Huevos Rancheros, Ranch Style Eggs, Refried Pinto Beans, Ham, or Bacon, usually thick style. Salsa, Chicharones, or as they call them here in the U.S.Pork Cracklings. We make them thick with chunks of meat and yummy crunchy crackly skin;...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large eggs
1 large onion sliced in rounds
1/2 c fresh cilantro chopped
1 large jalapeno, sliced in small round slices. use only one if you dont want to much heat or use half.
1/4 c canola oil or corn oil
2 clove fresh garlic put through a garlic press or mashed.
1 c my red salsa ( recipe posted)
1 c water
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a large skillet, heat the oil add the onion, sliced jalapeno, garlic, and cilantro. Saute for about three minutes. Next add the cup of red salsa and 1 cup water. Add garlic powder, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper. Lower the flame to medium and stir well cover for 3 minutes and let simmer.
  • 2. Next uncover and crack four eggs into the simmering salsa. space them as far apart from each other as possible spoon some sauce over each one careful not to break the egg yolk cover and let simmer for 3 more minutes. After three minutes have passed uncover and check to see if your eggs are covered white. You do not want the eggs to cook throughly. You want the yolk to be very soft like when you fry an egg sunny side up. The white part cooked but the yolk just set but not cooked through. What you have done is poach your eggs in the salsa.
  • 3. Serve your Huevos Rancheros next to refried beans, any breakfast meat you like such as ham, bacon, or sausage or Mexican chorizo. I like to put 2 or 3 pieces of chicharones on the plate, "pork cracklings", will post recipe this weekend. Add Tortillas and your favorite breakfast beverage. Buen appetito. Enjoy
  • 4. My picture above features huevos rancheros, refried beans, ham, chicharones and corn tortillas. You can opt for your favorite flour tortilla if the corn are not to your liking. Pass the extra salsa. LOL

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dishes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make Mexican breakfast dishes, so feel free to try different ingredients and techniques.
  • Make your own tortillas. It's easy to do and they taste much better than store-bought tortillas.
  • Use a variety of salsas. Salsas are a great way to add flavor and heat to your dishes.
