Arroz con huevo or rice with egg {Ultimate Latin Lazy lunch}

Arroz con huevo is a simple Latin dish featuring cooked white rice served with fried eggs, ripe fried plantains, and optional avocado and curtido salsa of tomato and onion. It offers a balanced combination of soft rice, runny or fried eggs, sweet plantains, and fresh salsa for a casual meal.

Description

Arroz con huevo, or rice with egg, is prepared by frying eggs to the desired doneness and serving them over Latin-style cooked white rice. The dish is complemented by fried ripe plantain slices that add sweetness and texture.

Optional sides include avocado slices and a tomato and onion curtido salsa, which provide fresh, bright contrast to the warm rice and eggs. This straightforward meal is practical for a quick lunch or light dinner, balancing starch, protein, and fresh accompaniments.
