Made Mexican Eggs today from my low fat recipe book (so don't expect to see cheese or tortilla chips!). It called for 3 tablespoons of cilantro. WHAT? So I halved that, and all in all I have to say I really enjoyed it! I had been tempted to leave it out altogether, but given that it was such a large amount I figured I needed at least some.

Next time I will keep the same amount, halve the chilli flakes (slightly too hot for Mum, who has to avoid spicy food) and reduce cooking time by about 5 minutes to get a runnier yolk.

But it was delicious.

Oh - second photo shows sliced boiled potatoes on the side. There is a yolk in the second dish, it just slipped under the white.
