Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup machaca*
1 small tomato, seeded and diced
1/ 4 cup onion, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon serrano chile, finely diced
pinch of cumin
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon lard*
Preparation:
Heat the lard in a medium skillet. Saute the onions and serrano chile for about 20 seconds. Add in the machaca and continue to heat for about 1 minute. Mix in the tomatoes and seasonings and remove mixture from pan and set aside. In the same pan, cook the eggs, constantly stirring and scraping with a wooden spoon or spatula to make them scrambled.
