Huevos en Chile (Eggs in Chili)

While in Mexico last summer, I discovered a new favorite food. Thanks to Luis's family, I have learned how to make it on my own! It starts with roasted tomatoes and chiles, which are made into a sauce, and put over eggs, then it's served with beans, tortillas, and avocado.

The first step is roasting the chiles, garlic, and onions. I do this on the stove in a pan that gets to be really hard to clean. They're put into the blender with some water while the tomatoes cook, and the eggs are cooked (with some diced onions).



After flipping the eggs, they should look like this:

When the tomatoes are done, they're added to the blender with some seasoning to make:

Then everything is added into the pan to simmer (I break up the eggs first):

While it's simmering, there's time to make tortillas!

Sadly, when everything was all done, we were too hungry to stop to take photos, but I did stop to take a picture of the aftermath. What a mess!
