This recipe (literally “ranchers’ eggs”) is a typical Mexican breakfast featuring lightly fried corn tortillas topped with refried beans, fried eggs, and plenty of salsa. It was traditionally served to ranchers as a late-morning breakfast after they had been hard at work, so you know it’s hearty and delicious!
Line a large plate with paper towels and set it near the stove. In a heavy frying pan over high heat, warm the canola oil. When the oil is hot, add the tortillas, one at a time, and fry, turning once, until lightly crisp and golden, 20–40 seconds on each side. Transfer to the towel-lined plate to drain.
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the salsa and cook, stirring
