Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin strips. In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of oil and the sliced onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized, about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a bowl, beat the two eggs with a pinch of salt. In a separate skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble until fully cooked, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tortas

    On a toasted torta roll, spread a layer of refried beans. Top with scrambled eggs, caramelized onions, pickled jalapeños, crumbled queso fresco, and fresh cilantro. Add a sprinkle of chopped onion for added crunch.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the tortas warm and enjoy!
