Instructions
- Heat a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add your cheese in a ring shape.
- Once it starts to melt a little bit, crack an egg directly into the center.
- Spoon a bit of roasted corn around the edge of the egg.
- Use a spatula to pull the edges in a bit once the cheese starts to get golden brown; you don’t have to do this, but I find that it helps to contain the egg a bit and expose those golden brown lacy edges.
- Cover and let it cook for a minute or two.
- When the egg is cooked to your liking (I prefer it with the whites set and the yolk still a bit runny), transfer the egg to tortilla with refried black beans.
- Finish with pickled onions, cilantro, Cotija, and your sauce of choice. The crispy cheese edge. The runny yolk. The creamy beans, spicy sauce, tangy onions. Oh my word. YUM.
