  • 2 tortillas, corn or small flour
  • 2 tablespoons salsa
  • 1 pinch salt, to taste
  • 1 pinch black pepper, to taste

Preparation Instructions

Place a skillet over medium heat. Divide and drizzle half the oil into the pan and the other half into the small dishes or muffin tins. Rub around the dishes.

Toss the sliced onions in to the pan and saute for 5-10 minutes until golden and slightly tender.

Meanwhile, cut the tortillas in half and place in the oiled dishes overlapping slightly.

When the onions are done, fill inside the tortilla cups, leaving a bit of room for the egg. Dollop on the salsa and crack the egg in to each dish.

Place in the oven for 18-24 minutes until the white are set. Bake a touch longer if you prefer the yolks to be harder.

Serve with more salsa or even a dollop of sour cream.
