In Mexico is very common to have eggs for breakfast and we have many ways to cook eggs.
Huevos a la Mexicana is one of those dishes that everyone knows how to cook and it is me feel back at home in Mexico.
I think they are the most popular breakfast dish in Mexico and it is a very comforting dish, full of flavour and you can make it as spicy as you want.
Its ingredients are just a few, but they are the most important ingredients that a Mexican kitchen must always have, tomatoes, onions and jalapeños.
