Mexican Breakfast Egg Taco

March 29

Corn tortillas are a must in LA and I would recommend you visit Picado in Dublin where they stock them or order online at mymexicanshop.ie. Any excess salsa will keep well stored in a jar in the fridge for at least 5 days.

  • time 10 mins

Method

  1. 1. Whizz all the ingredients for the salsa in a small food processor until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
  2. 2. Toast the corn tortillas in a hot dry frying pan with a drop of oil until slightly golden. Remove to a plate lined with kitchen paper.
  3. 3. Add another tbsp of oil to the pan and fry the egg until the white is no longer translucent.
  4. 4. Spread a little salsa across the base of the tortilla, top with a fried egg, avocado chunks, cherry tomatoes, spring onions and coriander leaves. Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve with a lime wedge on the side and dig in.
