The great Mexican breakfast

The great Mexican breakfast

This is a delicious, dead easy brunch that will cure any hangover, restore good moods and pep you up for the weekend. Serve with refried beans for absolute perfection.

  • Cooking: 10 mins
  • Serves: 1

What you need:

  • Olive oil/lard
  • 4 Mission Mexican Corn Tortillas
  • 4 eggs
  • 60g Lancashire cheese
  • A small handful chopped tarragon
  • Mission enchilada sauce (Combine tomato sauce and spice mix from Mission Mexican Fajita Meal Kit)
  • Salt and pepper

To serve

  • Refried beans
  • Crema

What you do:

  1. Heat the sauce gently in a pan. Melt 1-2 tbsp of lard or olive oil in a separate frying-pan and gently turn the flatbreads in the oil. Put them in a low oven, wrapped in foil, to keep warm, along with four plates. Add the tarragon to the sauce and stir.
  2. Melt the rest of the lard in the frying-pan and turn the heat right up until the fat is sizzling. Fry the eggs, two at a time, spooning the lard over the top of them so that they turn a golden colour at the edges and absorb some of the flavour. Season the eggs well with salt and pepper.
  3. Put a flatbread on each plate and top with the tomato sauce. Put a fried egg on top and scatter with the grated Lancashire.
  4. This is delicious with salsa and refried beans.
