Huevos en Torta
- 1/4 cup lard (preferred) or neutral oil
- 4 eggs
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons mint, preferably spearmint
- 2 tablespoons chopped onion
- Heat the lard or oil in a 10-inch cast-iron or nonstick skillet.
- Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the remaining ingredients.
- When the oil is shimmering but not quite smoking (you can test it with a drop of the egg it will sizzle and puff up), add the egg mixture all at once.
- It will puff up and begin to brown.
- As it does, turn it (in sections, though you can try to turn it all at once), so that uncooked parts brown as well.
- Serve hot, with tomato salsa if you like.
