Welcome to the channel and introduction to the dish.

Gather ingredients: 6 tomatoes, 4 serrano peppers (or 2 jalapeños), a few leaves of cilantro, 1 small piece of onion, salt, eggs, oil, refried beans, fresh cheese, and tortillas.

Heat a pan on the stove and roast the tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and onion for about 5 to 10 minutes, turning until dark and roasted.

Remove the roasted peppers, onion, and garlic from the pan and place them in a blender with the roasted tomatoes, cilantro, a pinch of salt, and 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth.

In a separate pan, heat oil and pour in the blended salsa. Taste and adjust salt if needed. Boil for 5 minutes and then turn off the heat.

Fry the tortillas in hot oil for about 30 seconds on each side until soft, not too hard. Use about 8 tortillas, 2 per portion.

In another pan, heat oil for frying eggs. Once hot, crack in the eggs and season with salt. Cook for about 1-2 minutes depending on desired doneness.

To serve, place a tortilla on a plate, top with a fried egg, add refried beans, cover with salsa, and garnish with fresh cheese and onion.
