INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring frequently, until it has rendered most of its fat. Remove all but 1 tbps of the fat. Add the nopales and sauté for 2 minutes and then add the Mexico City sauce. Let cook for 5 minutes. Season with salt. Set aside.
• In a small non-stick frying pan, heat the 4 tbsp of oil over medium-high heat. Add one corn tortilla, fry for 15 seconds and turn. Fry for another 10 seconds, remove and place over a paper towel. Repeat the process with all tortillas.
• In the same small non-stick frying pan, heat 1 tbsp of oil (if nothing is left from frying the tortillas) and reduce the heat to medium-low. Crack two eggs into the pan and cover with a lid. Continue cooking for approximately 3 minutes or until the whites solidify but the yolk is still runny.
• To serve, place a corn tortilla on a plate, put the eggs on top of the tortilla and add two tablespoons of the chorizo-nopal sauce. Eat immediately. Provecho!
