Chilaquiles with Fried Eggs

This vibrant vegetarian dish offers a truly authentic taste of Mexico, perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch or a flavourful midweek supper. Traditional chilaquiles with fried eggs consist of lightly fried corn tortillas simmered in a rich, smoky red sauce made from guajillo chillies and sun-ripened tomatoes. The combination of the spicy sauce, melted Monterey Jack, and salty feta creates a satisfying base that is both comforting and sophisticated.

Topped with fresh radishes, zesty lime, and perfectly fried eggs, this recipe provides a wonderful balance of textures and temperatures. It is an excellent way to use up slightly stale tortillas, and the homemade salsa can even be prepared a few days in advance to save time. Serve these colourful chilaquiles in the centre of the table for a nutritious, protein-packed meal that is sure to impress.

Place chillies in a medium bowl; cover with 475ml boiling water. Let chillies soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. Discard stems and seeds; place chillies in a blender. Add tomatoes, next 4 ingredients, and 240ml reserved soaking liquid; purée until smooth.

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add purée (it will splatter) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, partially covered and stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes (add more reserved soaking liquid if too thick). Stir in honey and season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm before using.

Place a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour oil into a large skillet to a depth of 1 1/2". Prop deep-fry thermometer in skillet with bulb submerged. Heat over medium-high heat until thermometer registers 177°C. Working in batches, fry tortillas, occasionally turning with tongs, until crisp, 2-3 minutes. Transfer chips to prepared sheet and season with salt.

Preheat grill. Toss chips and 240ml sauce in a large bowl. Transfer half of chips to a large ovenproof platter or skillet. Scatter half of cheeses over chips. Top with remaining chips and cheeses, along with 120ml more sauce. Grill until cheese is golden and melted, 4-5 minutes.

Meanwhile, pour oil into a nonstick skillet to lightly coat. Heat over medium heat. Add eggs and fry until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes.

Top chilaquiles with chopped onion, radishes, coriander, and lime wedges. Top with fried eggs and serve with remaining sauce alongside.
