Restaurant-Style Huevos Rancheros Recipe

We've been delving into some Mexican and Tex Mex recently, so this week we decided to use the carnitas we made last week and add it to some delicious Huevos Rancheros! The real trick to a good huevos rancheros is the ranchera sauce, which is basically a sofrito (as we made for the Mexican rice and similar to what we did for the pepian). It's a simple and delicious flavour profile, and if you wanted to garnish this with a little bit of pico, that would also be excellent.

Crispy corn tortillas is really awesome part of this recipe, and we made our own. We made our homemade corn tortillas, then fried them in oil until they got all puffed-up and crispy, and they worked extremely well. If you don't want to go through the trouble, you can either fry store-bought corn tortillas, or you can buy already crispy tortillas for this.

restaurant sells fresh corn tortillas. Saves me the from breaking out the "tortilladora". You are right though.. fresh off the griddle is the BEST!
