Ingredients
- Pack of bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 4 Tortilla Wraps
- 100g grated cheddar cheese
- Jar of pickled jalapenos or some Tabasco (optional)
- Cooking Oil
Method
- Lightly fry the bacon until browned, then move onto a plate
- Cut the bacon into small pieces/strips (roughly bite-size) and divide into 4 equal piles
- Lay 2 Tortilla wraps out on plates/the worktop and sprinkle cheese over half of each
- Sprinkle a pile of bacon over each
- Heat some cooking oil in your pan
- Crack 2 eggs into the pan and fry them, flipping over to cook the yoke if you prefer
- Gently lift the eggs from the pan and then place one on each of the tortillas
- Sprinkle some more cheese over the top
- If you're using jalapenos/tabasco, sprinkle these in now
- Brush the edge of the tortillas with water, fold over and pinch the edges together to seal
- Now repeat this process with the remaining 2 tortillas and eggs
- You should now have 4 sets of tortillas
- Bring the pan back up to temperature
- If you want a fried-bread style flavour, add a little oil to the pan, otherwise leave it (relatively) dry
- Carefully place one of the tortillas in, cooking for a few minutes until crispy and hot, then flipping (toward the fold rather than the edge) to do the other side
- Repeat with the other 3
- Serve hot, either on their own or alongside a salad
