Spicy fried eggs on chipotle cream tortillas with salsa ranchero

MAKES 2 SERVINGS

2 tomatoes, chopped

1/2 onion, chopped

2 serrano peppers, remove seeds

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1/2 bunch cilantro

2 cups water

3 (6-inch) flour tortillas, each cut into four wedges

1 teaspoon melted butter

2 eggs

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/3 of a canned chipotle chile in adobo

For the Salsa Ranchero: Place tomatoes, onion, serranos, garlic, cilantro and water in a pot, bring to a boil and let simmer for 1 hour. Cool slightly; puree in a blender, season with salt to taste and chill.

Fry tortilla wedges in some vegetable oil in a skillet to crisp them up slightly; set aside.

Heat a nonstick skillet, add the butter and crack in two eggs. Fry until done and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat cream until it comes to a boil and start to boil. Add chipotle and simmer, using a spoon to break up the chile. Add tortilla chips and cook in the cream until slightly softened.

To serve, spoon the tortillas onto a plate, slide the fried eggs on top and spoon some salsa over the eggs.
