Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp hot salsa or enchilada sauce
  • 1 tbsp refried beans
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp cheddar cheese, grated
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F) to prepare for baking the eggs evenly.
  2. Prepare the ramekin: Add 1 tablespoon of hot salsa or enchilada sauce to the bottom of an individual ramekin, spreading it evenly.
  3. Add refried beans: Spoon 1 tablespoon of refried beans on top of the salsa, smoothing it out to create a base layer.
  4. Add the egg: Make a slight well in the center of the refried beans and carefully crack 1 egg into the center, ensuring the yolk stays intact.
  5. Top with cheese and seasoning: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated cheddar cheese evenly over the egg, then season lightly with salt and black pepper.
  6. Bake the eggs: Place the ramekin on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully cooked and the cheese is melted.
  7. Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh coriander, and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can adjust the spice level by choosing mild or hot salsa according to your preference.
  • This dish can easily be doubled or tripled by using additional ramekins.
  • For a richer flavor, try adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce on top before baking.
  • If you prefer runnier yolks, reduce the baking time slightly.
  • Serve with tortilla chips or warm tortillas for a complete meal.
