Huevos Divorciados 🍳

Huevos Divorciados

Ingredients:
– 8 corn tortillas
– 8 eggs, fried
– 4 tomatoes, cut in half
– 3 white onions, peeled and halved
– 3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
– 3 dried pasilla chillies, deseeded
– 700g (24.6 oz) tin of tomatillos
– 1 jalapeño
– 1 bunch of coriander (cilantro)
– juice of 1 lime
– 120g (4.2 oz) pinto beans, soaked overnight
– 1 bay leaf
– salt to taste

Method:
1. For the salsa roja, add the tomatoes, two of the onion halves, and the garlic to a dry pan over high heat. In a separate pan, toast the chillies for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, then place them in a jar and cover with boiling water to soak.
2. Once the tomatoes, onions, and garlic have a nice dark char, transfer them to a food processor. Add the soaked chillies along with the water they were soaked in. Blitz to your desired consistency—I prefer it a little chunky. Season with salt, and set aside.
3. For the salsa verde, drain the tomatillos and place them in a blender with the jalapeño, 80% of the coriander (saving some for garnish), the lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend to your desired consistency, then refrigerate both salsas until ready to use.
4. To cook the beans, place the soaked beans in a pressure cooker or pot along with the remaining onion half, bay leaf, and a big pinch of salt. Cook in the pressure cooker for 25 minutes, or simmer in a regular pot on low for about 1.5 hours, until tender. Once cooked, mash the beans with a potato masher and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
5. Toast your tortillas in a hot, dry pan, and fry the eggs. Place the tortillas on plates, top each with a fried egg, and surround each egg with the two different salsas. Serve with some mashed beans on the side and garnish with fresh coriander. Enjoy!

  1. I'm having bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches for dinner…..candied bacon, toasted hard roll with cheese on each half and farm fresh eggs with yolks so orange they almost glow! 😋

  2. There should be a 3rd egg that’s not sauced that travels back and forth from mom and dads…😂

  3. Sorry but you took so much time eating I thought you weren't going to show a recipe.

  4. Looks good but your tortilla's look like cheap chain grocery store. Step it up by getting the good ones or making your own.
