🥘 Huevos con Salchicha en Salsa Roja

Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

For the Salsa Roja:

  • 3 medium Roma tomatoes

  • 1/4 small white onion

  • 1 garlic clove

  • 1–2 arbol chiles (or substitute with 1 chipotle for smoky heat)

  • Salt to taste

  • 1 tsp oil

For the Main Dish:

  • 4 eggs

  • 2–3 hot dogs or Mexican-style sausage (like longaniza), sliced

  • 1 tbsp oil or butter (for frying)

  • Salt & pepper to taste

Optional Garnishes:

  • Chopped cilantro

  • Crumbled queso fresco

  • Warm corn tortillas or toast on the side

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Make the Salsa Roja:

  1. In a small saucepan, boil the tomatoes, onion, garlic, and chiles in water until the tomatoes are soft (about 8–10 minutes).

  2. Blend everything together with a pinch of salt until smooth.

  3. In a skillet, heat 1 tsp oil and pour in the blended sauce. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until it thickens slightly. Adjust salt to taste.

2. Cook the Sausage:

  1. In a separate pan, heat 1 tbsp oil over medium heat.

  2. Add the sliced sausage or hot dog and cook until browned on all sides (5–6 minutes).

3. Add the Eggs:

  1. Crack the eggs directly into the pan with the sausage.

  2. Stir gently to scramble and mix with the sausage.

  3. Cook until eggs are just set — don’t overcook them!

4. Combine with the Salsa:

  1. Pour the simmered salsa roja into the pan with the eggs and sausage.

  2. Stir to coat everything evenly and let it cook together for another 2–3 minutes.

🍽️ Serve Hot!

Spoon onto a plate, garnish if desired, and serve with warm tortillas, beans, or rice. It’s perfect for breakfast, but honestly, great any time of day.
