Huevos Rancheros Hungarian Style

Ingredients

In this Hungarian adaptation of Huevos Rancheros, we use paprika-infused beans instead of black beans, and add a touch of sour cream to the tomato sauce for a creamier texture. We also serve it with a side of Hungarian-style pickled vegetables for a tangy contrast to the spicy flavors. We alse have the original recipe for Huevos rancheros, so you can check it out.

Treat your ingredients with care...

• Paprika — Use high-quality Hungarian paprika for the best flavor.
• Corn tortillas — Warm the tortillas before serving to make them more pliable and easier to eat.

Tips & Tricks

• If you don't have smoked paprika, you can use regular paprika and add a pinch of cayenne pepper for heat.
• You can also add some grated cheese on top of the eggs for extra flavor.
• If you prefer your eggs fully cooked, you can cook them for a few more minutes until the yolks are set.

Serving advice

Serve the Huevos Rancheros hot, with the tortillas and tomato sauce warmed up. The sour cream can be added on top of the eggs or on the side. The pickled vegetables can be served in a separate bowl.

Presentation advice

Arrange the tortillas on a plate and spoon the tomato and bean mixture on top. Place the eggs on top of the mixture and add a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
