Ingredients
- 4 corn tortillas
- 4 slices ham

Whisk the eggs thoroughly with a fork until the yolks and whites are well combined and slightly frothy.

Take one corn tortilla. Place one slice of ham and one slice of cheese on one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the ham and cheese, then fold it again to create a triangle shape. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.

Heat a large non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of cooking oil (about 1/2 tablespoon per tostada).
⏱️ 1 min

Once the oil is shimmering, place one folded tortilla into the hot pan. Immediately pour approximately 1/4 of the whisked eggs over and around the tortilla in the pan, ensuring it coats the tortilla completely and forms a thin layer around it.

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden brown on the bottom. The cheese inside the tortilla should also begin to melt.

Carefully flip the breakfast tostada and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until the egg is fully cooked through and golden brown. The tortilla should be slightly crispy.
