Ingredients for Huevos rancheros with kefir crema

• 120 ml organic plain full-fat kefir

• 50 g loosely packed chopped coriander

• 75 g diced red onion

• Maldon sea salt

• 3 medium tomatoes, chopped

• Juice of 1/2 lime

• 45 ml extra virgin olive oil

• 4 corn tortillas

• 4 large brown eggs

How to make Huevos rancheros with kefir crema

1. In a bowl, mix together the kefir, 60 ml of the chopped coriander (cilantro) and red onion, along with a pinch of sea salt. Set aside.

2. In a saucepan, gently reheat the beans over low heat, stirring until heated through.

3. Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat 30 ml of olive oil over medium heat. Add one tortilla at a time, heating until each tortilla is lightly crispy around the edges but still soft in the centre, about 15 seconds per side. Transfer the tortillas to a plate.

4. In the same frying pan, add the remaining 15 ml of olive oil, swirling the pan to coat the bottom. Once the oil is slightly shimmering, crack the eggs directly into the pan. Cover with a lid and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, 5–6 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.

5. Place one tortilla on each of four plates. Spread a thin layer of the cooked beans (about 30 g) on each tortilla, followed by an egg on top. Add a few slices of avocado, a little shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and a tablespoon of pico de gallo.

6. Drizzle a spoonful of the kefir crema over the top and serve immediately.
