Huevos Rancheros


Ingredients:
1 TBS oil
1 C onion, chopped
1 can Original Rotel
1 tsp. ground cumin, or to taste
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. cayenne
3 TBS Cilantro, chopped
4 corn tortillas
Butter
4 fresh eggs
Pkg. Shredded Four Mexican cheese
Queso fresco, crumbled
1 can refried beans

Instructions:
Sauté onions in oil until soft. Add Rotel and dry seasonings. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and let simmer while you do the rest of the cooking, stirring occasionally. Reduce to warm after it has been simmering for 10 minutes. Add salt to taste if needed.

Heat refried beans in small pan, and keep warm on low heat.

Heat the oven to 150°F, place serving plates in the oven to keep warm. Heat 2 tsp. oil in a large non-stick skillet on medium high. One by one fry the tortillas in the pan, a minute or two on each side, until they are heated through, softened, and pockets of air bubble up inside of them. Remove and stack them on one of the warming plates in the oven while you continue cooking the rest of the tortillas and the eggs.
In the same skillet used for the tortillas, add a little butter to the pan, about two teaspoons. Heat the pan on medium, then crack 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until yolks are thick and runny.
To serve, spread some refried beans on each tortilla, then add egg. Top with sauce, cheeses, then sprinkle with cilantro.
