Mexican breakfast dish
Huevos rancheros (Spanish pronunciation:
[ˈweβos ranˈtʃeɾos] , 'ranch-style eggs') is a breakfast egg dish served in the style of the traditional large mid-morning fare on rural Mexican farms.

Basic dish
The basic dish consists of fried eggs served on lightly fried or charred
corn or
flour
tortillas topped with a spicy
salsa made of
tomatoes ,
chili peppers , onion. Common accompaniments include
refried beans ,
Mexican-style rice , and
guacamole or slices of
avocado , with cilantro as a garnish.
[3]
Variants
As the dish spread beyond Mexico, variations using pureed chile or
enchilada sauce instead of tomato-chili pico de gallo, have appeared.
[3] Non-Mexican additions such as cheese, sour cream, and lettuce also have become common additions beyond the dish's native range.
[4]
In
New Mexico , huevos rancheros use red or green chile instead of ranchero sauce, rarely include rice, and typically include
hash browns ,
refried beans , and melted cheese on top. In some cases, meat is also included.

Huevos divorciados
Huevos divorciados (divorced eggs) are simply two eggs served in the same style as huevos rancheros but with a different sauce for each egg – usually a
salsa roja and a
salsa verde .
[9]
Similar dishes are
huevos motuleños of
Yucatan
[10] and New Mexican
enchiladas montadas.
[11]
Another variation, huevos ahogados or drowned eggs, is a traditional Mexican breakfast of eggs
poached in a tomato-chile salsa.
