Softening tortillas in the microwave
  • oil
Spray the tortillas with a little oil and stack them so each oiled top touches the next underside; put the stack in an unsealed heavy-duty bag and microwave about a minute until hot and supple.
Open the bag carefully against the steam and slide an egg onto each tortilla.
Assembling eggs on tortillas

Scrape the salsa into the pan with a little water to thin it and bring to a rolling boil.
Turn off the heat and spoon the salsa around the egg yolks.
