Ingredients
- 1 tamal husk removed
- 2 eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the tamal in a preheated non stick skillet or cast iron skillet. Fry over medium to medium high heat until all sides are crispy. About 5 minutes.
- Move the tamal to the side and lower heat. Once the skillet has cooled down a little bit, crack eggs into pan.
- Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
- Cook over low heat until most of the white has set.
- For over medium eggs, carefully flip eggs over and cook for 1 minute.
- Remove tamal and eggs from pan and place on plate.
- Enjoy while hot.
Notes
- Note on calories: only the egg calories are noted as the tamales can vary depending on your selection.
- The tamales can be any kind: red, green, or sweet. Just pick your favorite ones!
- There is no need to add extra oil as the tamales should release a little oil into the skillet.
- Cook the eggs over low heat. If the heat is too high, the white of the egg will overcook before the yolk has a chance to cook.
- Use a thin spatula to slide under the tamales and eggs.
