Ingredients
Scale
Eggs and Cream Base
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 4–5 eggs
Spice and Garnish
- 1 tbsp salsa macha (plus more for topping)
- Chopped chives, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Sauce: Preheat a skillet over high heat for 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and 1 tablespoon of salsa macha. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer the mixture for 1 minute until it begins to caramelize, which will deepen the flavor.
- Add Eggs: Carefully crack the eggs directly into the skillet with the cream and salsa macha mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid to trap steam and heat.
- Cook Eggs: Cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg whites are fully set but the yolks remain runny and creamy, ensuring a soft texture with a spicy sauce base.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Top the cooked eggs with chopped chives and an additional drizzle of salsa macha to enhance the flavor and add a fresh finish before serving.
Notes
- Use fresh eggs for best texture and flavor.
- Control the spiciness by adjusting the amount of salsa macha.
- Covering the skillet helps cook the eggs evenly and quickly.
- Serve immediately for the best taste as the sauce is best enjoyed warm.
- Can be served with toast or warm tortillas to soak up the sauce.
