• Meanwhile while potatoes are frying, chop the onion, jalapeno, tomatoes and cheese into finely pieces. Add onion and jalapenos to the potatoes when they are almost golden brown.
• Let the jalapeno and onion cook while you keep stirring. Then add the chopped tomatoes and mozzarella cheese, and finally add salt and pepper as you desire.

AUTHENTIC HUEVOS RANCHEROS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas one at a time until firm, but not crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain grease.
• Meanwhile, combine the refried beans and butter in a microwave-safe dish. Cover, and cook in the microwave until heated through. When tortillas are done, fry eggs over easy in the skillet. Add more oil if the tortillas have absorbed it all.
• Place tortillas onto plates, and spread a layer of beans on them. Top with cheese, a fried egg, crumbled bacon and if desired, salsa.
