Method

  1. 1

    Mash the black beans with a splash of water and warm through in a small pan.

  2. 2

    Chop the tomatoes and simmer in a separate pan for 8 minutes until pulpy, then stir in the frozen peas for the last 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Fry the corn tortillas in the sunflower oil for 1 minute a side until lightly crisp, then drain.

  4. 4

    Fry the large eggs in the same pan until the whites are set but the yolks still soft.

  5. 5

    Spread the mashed black beans over each tortilla, top with a fried egg, the diced thick-cut ham and the tomato and pea sauce.

  6. 6

    Finish with crumbled feta cheese and serve straight away.
