Description

When it comes to eggs, it can’t get simpler than Huevos Ahogados. A Mexican egg dish, the name translates to “Drowned Eggs,” drowned with love in a semi-thin salsa (sauce).

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Tomato Sauce (Salsa)
  • 4 whole Eggs
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Freshly Ground Pepper
  • 1 ounce, weight Fresh Cheese
  • 1 sprig Cilantro, To Garnish

Preparation

Use your favorite salsa or sauce—green, red, hot, mild, your choice. This time I used spicy red.

Bring the salsa to a simmer. Carefully crack each egg and let Miss Salsa and Mr. Egg be joined.

Sprinkle some fresh pepper.

Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes or until they are done (no more transparent white). Serve them hot.

I like serving mine in cazuelas (clay bowl), not only for the look but because cazuelas retain the heat for a longer time.

Use some fresh cheese and cilantro to garnish, and warm tortillas to devour them.

Buen Provecho!

Sounds yummy! I’ll have to try them next time I have the munchies and only one clean pan – so… tomorrow then.
