Procedures:
| 1 | ...serve fresh fruit, warm wheat-flour tortillas, sweet butter, honey and coffee for a great brunch. | | 2 | In a medium-size saucepan, heat the oil, add the chopped onion, and fry over medium heat until the onion is translucent. | | 3 | Add tomato juice, garlic, chiles, herbs, and salt. | | 4 | Reduce heat to simmer for about 10 minutes. | | 5 | Sauce can be made a day or hours ahead of time and left at this point. | | 6 | Preheat oven to 350 °F. | | 7 | Warm the tortillas by wrapping in foil and placing on the 4 serving plates (mexican pottery if possible) in the warm oven. | | 8 | At the same time, warm the extra tortillas you are serving as bread. | | 9 | Poach the eggs, using an egg poacher or a frying pan of hot water with 2 tablespoons vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt added. | | 10 | First break an egg into a cup, then stir the water in the frying pan vigorously in a circular motion. | | 11 | As you stir, slide the egg from the cup into the water. | | 12 | Cover the pan when all eggs have been added. | | 13 | To assemble the dish, place a tortilla on a plate. | | 14 | Top with a circle of avocado slices, then arrange a drained poached egg (or 2 eggs) on top, spoon sauce over, and sprinkle with cheese. | | 15 | Place in the oven until cheese melts. | | 16 | Add the lettuce garnish after the cheese has melted. | | 17 | Variation: instead of the tortillas, rinse large "cupped" iceberg lettuce leaves and serve the eggs topped with sauce in the lettuce leaves. | | 18 | Makes 4 servings |
