Method

1. 1

   Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil and cook the onion for 5 minutes until soft. Add the garlic, jalapeños and cumin and cook for another minute.

2. 2

   Add the tinned tomatoes and salt and simmer for 12 minutes, until thick enough to hold its shape on a spoon. Keep it warm.

3. 3

   Heat the refried beans in a small pan with a splash of water until spreadable. Warm the tortillas in a dry pan for 20 seconds a side.

4. 4

   Heat the remaining oil and fry the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks still soft.

5. 5

   Put two tortillas on each plate, spread with refried beans, sit the eggs on top and spoon the warm salsa around the yolks rather than over them.

6. 6

   Scatter with queso fresco and coriander and serve immediately.
