Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp hot salsa or enchilada sauce
  • 1 tbsp refried beans
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp cheddar cheese, grated
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F) to prepare for baking your dish.
  2. Assemble Ingredients in Ramekin: Spoon the hot salsa or enchilada sauce into the bottom of an individual ramekin. Add the refried beans on top, then create a small well in the center for the egg.
  3. Add Egg and Cheese: Crack the egg into the well in the ramekin. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the egg and season with salt and black pepper to your liking.
  4. Bake: Place the ramekin on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the egg whites are set but the yolk is still slightly runny.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and finish with fresh chopped coriander. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • You can adjust the cooking time if you prefer a firmer yolk.
  • Substitute cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack or pepper jack for a different flavor.
  • Add a sprinkle of chili flakes if you want extra heat.
  • This recipe is easily doubled or tripled for more servings.
  • Use non-stick spray or lightly oil the ramekin to make cleanup easier.
