Dispensing Happiness
Over Easy
.Day four: I get tired of cooking, and allow Matt to make dinner.
Tonight, Huevos a la Hacienda, or Estate Eggs.
Pretty simple, really. Lightly fried corn tortillas, topped with refried beans, a spicy sauce of both pasillas and serranos, a fried egg, and Jack cheese. Stick under a broiler till cheese melts.
Very homey...total comfort food. Hey...this could qualify as an EoMEoTE entry!

3 Thoughts for food:
Come to think of it, I've never had Mexican food before. No, I'm not exaggerating. Ok, not unless you count that Bandito chicken tortilla wrap at KFC. Now you've got me all curious about authentic Mexican food!
Well, we certainly won't count KFC!
Mexican food is so incredibly flavorful...and you can use all sorts of meats, or go completely meatless. The sauces are incredible, and can be used to perk up almost any dish.
Rick Bayliss is a good start for Mexican (Mexico One Plate at a Time is a good start). I'm sure you'll like it.
And it's relatively easy to make, too. Not that there aren't labor-intensive dishes, of course, but it tends to be technically straightforward.
The hard part, I'd think, would be in finding tomatillos, decent corn tortillas, and an appropriate assortment of chiles, of which Mexican cuisine uses a dizzying array. It's getting easier to find, say, dried anchos and guajillos in these parts, but we've also got a rapidly growing culturally Mexican population. Dunno how many Mexicans live in Singapore.
