Huevos Winddancers Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil 4 mini (4-inch) ramekin or mini baking dishes; set aside.
• 2. Heat oil in medium skillet over low heat until oil is fragrant. Cook onion, bell pepper and garlic in hot oil until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
• 3. Add tomatoes, pimientos and sherry, and cook until thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• 4. Divide the sauce among the 4 ramekins. For each ramekin, break two eggs into a saucer, and slide them on top of the tomato mixture. Drizzle the top of each with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
• 5. Bake at 350°F for 10 to 12 minutes or until the whites are set and the yolks are still soft. Season with salt, pepper and chopped parsley, and serve immediately (still in the baking dish).

Steps:

• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas one at a time until firm, but not crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain grease.
• Meanwhile, combine the refried beans and butter in a microwave-safe dish. Cover, and cook in the microwave until heated through. When tortillas are done, fry eggs over easy in the skillet. Add more oil if the tortillas have absorbed it all.
• Place tortillas onto plates, and spread a layer of beans on them. Top with cheese, a fried egg, crumbled bacon and if desired, salsa.

Steps:

• For the potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spread the potatoes and onions on a baking sheet and season with the smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon pepper and salt to taste. Drizzle with the oil and roast until the potatoes are tender and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the eggs and ham, place a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and coat the bottom with the oil. Place a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl. Once the oil is hot, add the torn slices of jamón serrano to the pan and fry until crispy, about 30 seconds per side. Remove to the sieve and set aside. Turn the heat off the oil, sprinkle in the paprika and crack the eggs in, swirling the pan around to allow the oil to brush over the whites. Use a spoon to baste the eggs with the oil until the whites are fully cooked and the yolks are just barely set, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Divide the potatoes into two shallow serving bowls and top each with one of the eggs, a few slices of the crispy jamón and a drizzle of the paprika oil from the pan. Garnish with the parsley and crushed red pepper flakes and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Form grated potatoes into four pancakes and saute in olive oil till nicely browned.
• Drain on paper towel covered rack and keep warm.
• Poach eggs (if preparing eggs in advance, hold poached eggs in cold water till ready to serve; immerse in simmering water till warmed).
• Assemble, bottom to top, potato pancake, ham slice, tomato slice, poached egg, warm salsa, ending with a sprinkling of the grated cheese.

Steps:

• For the ranchero sauce: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F and put the tomatoes, garlic cloves and onion on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast the vegetables, turning occasionally, until blistered and charred in spots, about 35 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove the papery skins from the garlic.
• Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the ancho chiles, cover, and remove from the heat. Let sit for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
• Put the vegetables and any juices from the baking sheet into a blender. Add the ancho chiles, 1/2 teaspoon each chopped chipotle and adobo sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt and blend until fairly smooth. Taste; if you want the sauce spicier, stir in the remaining chopped chipotle and adobo sauce.
• Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sauce (it will sizzle) and 1/3 cup water and cook, stirring, until thickened but pourable, about 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt as necessary. Cover and keep warm over low heat. If the sauce thickens too much, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time to thin it out.
• For the refried beans: Put the beans in a medium bowl with about half of their reserved liquid and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering, then add the mashed beans and a big pinch of salt and mash again until smooth. Cook, stirring and scraping with a rubber spatula, until heated through. If the beans seem dry, add some more of the reserved liquid until they are creamy. Taste, season with salt if necessary and cover and keep warm over low heat.
• For serving: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add 1 tortilla and cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Flip the tortilla with tongs and continue to cook until the underside blisters, about 15 seconds. Remove from the pan to the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining 7 tortillas, adding more oil if necessary. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the refried beans on each tortilla and keep warm in the oven.
• Using the same skillet the tortillas were fried in, heat 1 tablespoon oil until shimmering, about 1 minute. Crack 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until the edges are crispy and whites are almost set. Cover the skillet with a big pot lid and cook until the whites are completely set, 1 more minute. Remove the tortillas from the oven, top four with an egg, then return to the oven and repeat with the 4 remaining eggs.
• Top the remaining tortillas with the remaining eggs. Sprinkle each with a pinch of salt, some ranchero sauce, Cotija cheese, cilantro and onion. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan. Add the onions with a pinch of salt, and cook until translucent, around 3-4 mins. Add the garlic and cook for a minute more.
• Stir in the beans, cumin, chilli powder, oregano, some seasoning and 100ml water. Cook for 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally, or until the beans have softened, then remove from the heat, mash and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Crack in the eggs, then reduce the heat to low and cook slowly until the whites are completely firm.
• To assemble, spread the beans onto the tortillas, add the tomatoes and jalapeños and sprinkle with cheese. Top with some avocado, a squeeze of lime juice and a fried egg, then scatter with coriander. Serve with the lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Arrange tostada shells on a baking sheet. Spread a layer of refried beans onto each shell; sprinkle each shell with about 1 tablespoon Cheddar cheese.
• Combine chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, salsa, and 1 cup cilantro in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until warm, about 5 minutes.
• Put black beans in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until warm, about 1 minute.
• Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook each egg in the melted butter until white is firm and yolk is still together, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully place each cooked egg atop a tostada shell; sprinkle with remaining Cheddar cheese.
• Bake tostadas in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
• Place each tostada on a plate; top with salsa mixture and cilantro. Spoon black beans on the side.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Add the tortilla and fry for 1-2 mins on each side until crisping at the edges. Transfer to a plate.
• Crack the egg into the pan and cook to your liking. Meanwhile, tip the beans into a bowl, season and add a squeeze of lime, then lightly mash with a fork.
• Spread the beans over the tortilla, top with the egg, avocado, feta and chilli sauce. Squeeze over a little more lime juice just before eating.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine tomatoes, onion, lemon juice, jalapeño, 2 teaspoons salt and ¼ teaspoon of the garlic, and mix well. Transfer 1½ cups of the fresh salsa to a bowl and set aside.
• Cook the remaining salsa over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes soften and the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Transfer the ranchero sauce to a bowl and cover to keep warm (you should have about 2 cups).
• In the same saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Add the remaining ¼ teaspoon garlic and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add the beans (and their liquid), cumin, smoked paprika and ½ cup of the reserved fresh salsa, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently and mashing with the back of a spoon or potato masher, until the mixture is smooth and thick, about 10 minutes. Season with salt to taste and remove from heat.
• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium. Crack in 4 of the eggs and cook undisturbed until whites are set but yolks are still runny, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a large plate and repeat with the remaining oil and eggs.
• Meanwhile, stir the cilantro into the remaining 1 cup reserved salsa. Divide the tortillas across 4 plates (2 per plate). Spread refried black beans on the tortillas and top each with an egg. Cover the eggs with ranchero sauce. Divide avocado on the plates and garnish with some of the fresh salsa, queso fresco and cilantro.
