Chilaquiles make for a quick and easy breakfast, lunch or starter. In this vegetarian Tex-Mex dish, tortilla chips are simmered in salsa and tossed with Mexican crema and queso fresco. Delicious!

Ingredients:

1 tbsp avocado oil
200g tortilla chips
300g salsa (pico de gallo or salsa verde).
60g queso fresco, crumbled
2 tbsp Mexican crema or sour cream

Optional Toppings:
sliced avocado
sliced jalapeño pepper
sliced onion
sliced radish
fresh coriander, chopped
eggs: scrambled or fried

Method:

Place a large frying pan over medium heat. Once hot add the oil then scatter over the tortilla chips before pouring over your choice of salsa.

Bring to a simmer and cook until the tortilla chips have absorbed most of the salsa (about 7-10 minutes).

Take off the heat and serve with crumbled queso fresco, Mexican crema, and your favourite toppings.
