Ingredients

  • 4 cups Cauliflower, riced
  • 10 units Eggs, large
  • 6 units Tomatillos, husked
  • 3 units Roma tomatoes
  • 3 units Serrano peppers
  • 4 units Garlic cloves
  • 0.5 cup Cilantro, fresh
  • 1 unit Onion, white
  • 0.25 cup Coconut flour
  • 4 tablespoons Avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin, ground
  • 2 teaspoons Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Steam 3 cups of riced cauliflower until very soft. Squeeze out all moisture using a cheesecloth. Mix with 2 beaten eggs, coconut flour, and salt. Form into 8 small balls and press between parchment paper to create tortillas. Sear in a dry skillet for 3 minutes per side until golden.

  2. 2

    For the Salsa Verde: Boil tomatillos, 1 serrano, and 1 garlic clove for 10 minutes. Blend with cilantro and salt until smooth. Simmer in a saucepan for 10 minutes to thicken.

  3. 3

    For the Salsa Roja: Roast tomatoes, 2 serranos, and 2 garlic cloves under a broiler until charred. Blend with half an onion and salt. Simmer in a separate saucepan for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    For the Refried Cauliflower 'Wall': Sauté the remaining 1 cup of riced cauliflower with diced onion and cumin in oil until browned and tender. Mash with a fork to a paste-like consistency.

  5. 5

    Fry the remaining 8 eggs sunny-side up in avocado oil.

  6. 6

    To assemble: Place two cauliflower tortillas on each plate. Place one fried egg on each tortilla. Spread a line of refried cauliflower between the eggs. Cover one egg with salsa verde and the other with salsa roja. Serve immediately.
