How to Make Batatas Con Huevos Mexican Comfort Food
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and scrub 2 large sweet potatoes. Pierce them several times with a fork.
- Roast the sweet potatoes for 45-50 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
- While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the toppings. Sauté 1/2 small onion, chopped, in 1 tablespoon olive oil until softened. Add 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color) and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Crack 4 large eggs into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, let them cool slightly. Carefully slice a lengthwise opening into each potato, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Spoon the sautéed onion and pepper mixture into the sweet potato cavities.
- Pour the eggs into the cavities on top of the vegetables.
- Return the stuffed sweet potatoes to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro, crumbled cotija cheese (optional), and a dollop of sour cream or Mexican crema (optional). Serve immediately.
