Directions

This is the simplest and most popular way of cooking eggs in the Mexican manner.

Break the eggs into a bowl and just mix (do not beat) with the salt.

Heat the lard in a large frying pan.

Add the tomatoes, onions, and fresh chiles, stir well, and fry over medium heat, stirring from time to time, for about 3 to 4 minutes or until most of the juice has been absorbed.

Stir in the eggs and continue stirring and turning them over until the eggs are set - about 4 minutes.

Serve immediately with corn tortillas.

Serve with cilantro as a garnish and red hot pepper sauce to taste!

A great way to give basic scrambled eggs some zip. Very quick, easy and quite tasty. We used a couple of jalapeno peppers instead of the Serrano chilies called for in the recipe and added lots of Frank's Red sauce when serving. The corn tortillas start falling apart so we needed a fork. Stuffing the eggs into hard tortilla shells would work great, sort of a breakfast taco and add another layer of texture.
