Serves 6

Ingredients:

12 large fresh eggs

3 tbsp. heavy cream

2 tbsp. butter

½ small onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

3 medium ripe tomatoes, skinned, seeded and chopped

1 jalapeno chili, finely chopped (seeded for a milder flavor)

1½ tbsp. fresh cilantro, finely chopped

1 tbsp. fresh lime juice

1 cup (113g) cheddar cheese, shredded

1 large avocado, skinned and chopped

6 tbsp. sour cream

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

The evening before, mix together the onion, garlic, tomatoes, chili, cilantro and lime juice in a ceramic bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight for the flavors to blend. In the morning: Remove the salsa mix from the refrigerator and allow it to reach room temperature. Break the eggs and beat well together with the cream and season to taste. In a large skillet, heat the butter until melted and add the eggs. Scramble the eggs as desired. Portion the eggs out onto individual serve plates and top with the pre-made salsa, avocado, cheese and the sour cream.
