Let's make it.

5 steps
  1. Simmer the salsa

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a saucepan. Soften onion for 5 minutes. Add garlic and jalapeño for a minute, then tomatoes and half the salt. Simmer for 10 minutes.

  2. Warm the beans

    Heat the beans with cumin, water and remaining salt in a small pan. Mash a few beans to thicken, then keep warm.

  3. Heat the tortillas

    Brush a frying pan with a little of the remaining oil. Warm tortillas on both sides until flexible and lightly toasted. Divide between two plates.

  4. Cook the eggs

    Heat the remaining oil in the same pan. Crack in the eggs and cook until the whites are fully set; cover briefly if needed to set the tops.

  5. Assemble

    Spoon salsa over the tortillas and top with eggs. Add beans alongside, scatter over coriander and serve with lime wedges.
