Chilaquiles Verdes con Huevos, Como Los Hacemos Nosotros
This is the breakfast my mother made before the sun was fully up, and her mother before her — tortillas from the day before, a quick salsa from the comal, eggs broken right into the pan. We eat this to start a real day, something that holds you. It is fast, but it is not simple — the char on the tomatillo, the lard hot enough to fry properly, the moment you pull the pan off the heat before the eggs go too far. Those things matter. #oaxacan #mexican breakfast #chilaquiles #eggs #traditional #comal
