At present’s Google Doodle is a foodie’s delight. The Doodle is a celebration of one in every of my very favourite breakfast meals, the great chilaquiles, which sarcastically I made for myself not as soon as, however twice this week.
In response to Google, Oakland-based visitor artist Chava Oropesa created the Doodle.
The chilaquile is a straightforward dish, although you may spruce it up as a lot as you want. At its most simple, you simply want some fried tortilla strips or chips, some enchilada sauce, some cheese and a fried egg or two. Cowl the chips in enchilada sauce and cheese, warmth it up, prime with eggs, devour. Simple, fast and scrumptious!
As with all Mexican dishes, the kind of chilaquiles you’ll discover in Mexico varies by area.
You may add avocado, guacamole, salsa, cotija cheese, melted queso, jalapenos, or actually no matter your coronary heart (or abdomen) needs, together with slow-cooked pork or rooster. You would even assume means exterior the field and make a inexperienced chile gravy and do a hybrid biscuits and gravy chilaquiles, although perhaps with corn muffins as a substitute.
My level is, it is a nice alternative to set the universe proper if you happen to haven’t had chilaquiles earlier than. You may decide pink or inexperienced enchilada sauce. I believe it’s completely wonderful out of a can, however if you happen to needed to get actual fancy-like, you may make it from scratch. Simply don’t overcook the eggs! You need the yolk good and runny. One other good concept is to make your personal tortillas and use some for tacos for dinner, then use no matter’s left and fry them up for breakfast the subsequent day.
Chilaquiles will be traced again to historic Aztec occasions, however have been solely launched to American eaters by Encarnación Pinedo, “The Spanish Cook dinner” in 1898. I’ve had them in Mexico and and US eating places, although principally I simply make them at house.
I’ll say, a great batch of hash browns with runny eggs can be within the working for finest breakfast meals. And it’s onerous to beat selfmade biscuits and gravy. However I believe if I needed to decide only one breakfast for all times, it will be chilaquiles. Although I do additionally love breakfast tacos.
Or perhaps huckleberry pancakes. Exhausting to beat huckleberry pancakes.
