1

Roast the tomatoes and jalapenos in the oven at 400F for 15-20 minutes.

2

Add a dollop of oil (or lard) to a high-rimmed saucepan. Saute the salsa mixture from the blender until slightly thickened, 4-6 minutes.

3

Add 2-3 cups of stock and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a steady simmer. Salt to taste.

4

Cracking the eggs in individual bowls makes it easier to slide them into the broth. Add the eggs to salsa mixture.

5

Cook the eggs 4-6 minutes for runny yolks, or a couple minutes longer for firm yolks.

6

Serve the eggs in bowls along with plenty of the salsa broth. Taste for seasoning and garnish with fresh cilantro (optional).

7

Corn tortillas, toast, or crispy quesadillas are all good options to dip into the delicious broth.
