For the Huevos Rancheros

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beans

    In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the canned black beans (drained and rinsed) and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside and keep warm.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry them to your desired doneness (sunny-side-up, over-easy, etc.). Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the eggs are cooking, in another skillet or on a comal, warm the blue corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    To assemble, place two warm blue corn tortillas on each plate. Spoon half of the black beans mixture onto each tortilla. Top with a fried egg, diced tomato, and chopped cilantro. Garnish with avocado slices and lime wedges.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Blue Corn Huevos Rancheros!
