Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 Roma tomato
  • 1/8 onion
  • 1 jalapeño
  • 4-6 cilantro sprigs
  • 5 egg
  • refried beans (optional)
  • corn tortillas (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • black pepper freshly cracked
  • 1-2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter optional

Instructions

  1. Finely chop 1 jalapeno and 1/8 of an onion.
  2. Rinse and finely chop 4-6 sprigs of cilantro.
  3. Roughly cut out the seeds of the tomato and discard.  Finely chop the tomato, season with a pinch of salt, and let it drain on a paper towel.
  4. Whisk 5 eggs together.
  5. Lightly saute the onion and jalapeno in a dollop of oil (and some butter if you want.)
  6. Add the eggs and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and freshly cracked pepper.  Cook on medium-low heat, turning frequently.
  7. Just before the eggs are done cooking add the tomatoes and cilantro.  Mix well and cook for an additional minute.
  8. Taste for seasoning and add more salt if necessary (I usually do).
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can use serrano peppers instead of jalapenos if you want.
  •  
  • Feel free to serve with warm corn tortillas loaded with beans and cheese.
