Cooking Steps

Fry the vegetables
1
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the sweet potato for 4 minutes.
  • Chop the Romano pepper into strips.
  • Add the Romano pepper to the sweet potato and fry for 6 - 8 minutes.
Make the sauce
2
  • Add the chopped tomatoes, the paprika, the water for the sauce, the Mexican-style spices* and half of the sugar. 
  • Fry for 3 - 4 more minutes over high heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, halve and pit the avocado, then remove the skin and slice the flesh.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Pickle the onion
3
  • Slice the onion into half rings and transfer to a small bowl.
  • Add the red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and the rest of the sugar. Toss well to combine and then set aside, stirring occasionally.
  • Roughly chop the fresh herbs.
  • Cut the lime into six wedges.
Poach the eggs
4
  • Make small wells in the vegetable mixture for each egg.
  • Crack the eggs into the wells so as to mostly submerge them with the sauce.
  • Cover with the lid and allow to poach for 4 - 6 minutes over medium heat.
Finish
5
  • Remove the lid and turn up the heat.
  • Poach the eggs for a further 2 - 3 minutes so as to allow any excess liquid to evaporate (see Tip).
  • Season with salt and pepper, then scatter over the cheese and cook for 1 more minute.

Tip: the cooking time depends on your pan. Check the eggs and poach for more or less time as needed.

6
  • Squeeze some of the lime wedges directly over the huevos ahogados, then top with the avocado and the pickled onion.
  • Garnish with the fresh herbs.
  • Serve the rest of the lime wedges alongside.
