Cut up tortillas, fry them with some salt, when crispy crack two or three eggs in there and scramble. I grew up eating it and while it is delicious I don't think I would serve it to guests.
...that's essentially migas: people pay restaurant money for that...
Yeah now they do and I feel kinda vindicated TBH. Back when I was a kid this dish was compared to dog food by some of my classmates and teachers, I kid you not. Maybe I still carry some of that trauma and I wouldn't serve it to guests but I will gladly cook it for me and my kid, who also loves it.
...i mean, people pay restaurant money for ramen these days, too: every peasant food gets its day in due time...
If you soaked the chips in salsa first that sounds like chilaquiles.
I think as written it's migas, which is similar but not quite the same, notably the tortillas aren't smothered in salsa first
Exactly this.
Fair.
I love migas!
That actually doesn't sound that bad lol
Thank you for the suggestion.
Yum! I do this with tortilla chips crushed slightly and let them soak in the melting butter in the pan while it warms up. Same thing in reverse mostly. Delicious.
I love this, my kids do not. They do love chilaquiles, but those I make fried eggs for.
One skillet, good egg dishes. Shakshuka you might like too.
