Authentic Huevos Rancheros - Eggs with Spicy Mexican Sauce

Authentic Huevos Rancheros Recipe – Mexican Eggs with Ranchero Sauce


Huevos rancheros ( "rancher's eggs") is a popular breakfast dish consisting of eggs served in the style of the traditional large mid-morning fare on rural Mexican farms. The basic dish consists of fried eggs served upon lightly fried corn tortillas topped with a tomato-chili sauce. Refried beans, Mexican-style rice, slices of avocado, or guacamole are common accompaniments.

Variations

As the popularity of the dish spread beyond Mexico, variations using wheat flour tortillas instead of corn and pureed chile or enchilada sauce instead of tomato-chile salsa have appeared. Non-Mexican additions such as cheese, sour cream, and lettuce also have become common beyond the dish's native range. "Huevos divorciados", divorced eggs, are simply two eggs served in the usual style, but with a different sauce for each, usually a red and a green chile.

Huarache - Mexcican Flat Tire Recipe

Huarache - Mexcican Flat Tire Recipe -   Huarache is a popular Mexican dish consisting of an oblong, fried masa base, with a variety of toppings. The name "Huarache" is derived from the shape of the masa, similar to the popular sandals of the same name. The word Huarache is originally from Purepecha (Tarascan) and the Nahuatl word for huarache is kwarachi. Huaraches are similar to sopes but differ in shape. Huaraches are topped with green or red salsa, onions, potato, cilantro and any manner of protein such as ground beef or tongue, and then finished with queso fresco cheese.This dish is most popular in its hometown, Mexico City. However, Huaraches have branched out to cities with Mexican-American populations like Chicago, New York, or Houston, but have yet to become widely available across the entire United States. Serves 4-5

  • 3 cups Corn Masa
  • 1 cup AP Flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
