About this recipe
Chilaquiles is a classic Mexican breakfast born from making the most of yesterday's tortillas. The crisp chips soften in the salsa while a fried egg and yogurt add a creamy balance to the plate.
Method
- 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C and bake the tortilla triangles for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp.
- 2
In a wide pan, bring the green salsa to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- 3
Add the baked chips to the salsa and toss to coat, simmering for 2 minutes.
- 4
In a separate pan, fry the eggs in the olive oil.
- 5
Divide the salsa-coated chips among plates and top each with a fried egg.
- 6
Add the yogurt, crumbled cheese and sliced onion.
- 7
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately while the chips are still crisp.
Tips
- Baking the chips instead of frying them cuts the fat and keeps the dish lighter.
- Don't overcook once the salsa is added and serve right away so the chips keep some crunch.
