Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoon mexican crema or sour cream
  • salt and fresh black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • four 6-inch tortillas, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Directions
  1. Whisk together the eggs, crema, and ½ teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
