HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the corn tortillas one at a time for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

02

In the same skillet, if needed, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks.

03

Fry the eggs for 2-3 minutes for runny yolks, or longer for firmer yolks, until the whites are set. Season with salt and pepper.

04

Warm the salsa gently in a small saucepan over low heat for 2-3 minutes, or microwave until just warm.

05

To assemble, place two crispy tortillas on each plate. Spoon a generous amount of warm salsa over each tortilla.

06

Carefully place one fried egg on top of the salsa on each tortilla.

07

Garnish with sliced avocado and a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, you can lightly toast the tortillas in a dry skillet before frying them in oil. Ensure your skillet is hot enough for frying the tortillas to get them crispy, but not so hot that they burn quickly.

Easy Substitutions

Instead of frying, you can bake the tortillas at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes until crispy, flipping halfway. For a vegetarian option, you can add black beans or refried beans as an additional layer. A sprinkle of crumbled cotija cheese or a dollop of sour cream would also be delicious.

Storage & Reheating

These tostadas are best enjoyed fresh. Leftover fried eggs and tortillas do not store well as they lose their texture. You can store leftover salsa and avocado separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
