Rancho Huevo at Milton's in Lawrence, KS

I ordered the Rancho Huevo at Milton's in Lawrence, KS (home of KU and the Jayhawks) mainly because I heard about this dish but never had it. The restaurant (ranked #1 breakfast and #2 coffee in Best of Lawrence open (B, L, D)) really has some great coffee and best brunche offerings.

Variety of good food at reasonable prices and always packed. Huge french toasts, different piza, hunge calzones,
I had made recipes like this. What really was good about this recipe in the wrapped tortilla was it added guacamole and sour cream to the eggs with hot sauce which gave it a different consistency. The fried potatoes with it were meager but okay. I got Black Mountain coffee blend which is smooth (the name coincidentally is the name for the little town I landed in North Carolina in 1973 to continue my tennis career). My son got the lox and egss which he likes. We shared the hummus which was chunkies then usual and also nicely came with thinly sliced yellow and red bell peppers, marinted artichokes and black olives.

I will have to try the Ranchero sauce on my own. I found from my book Coyote Cafe by Mark Miller. We did not go to his place
Coyote Cafe when we were in New Mexico (another story in my blog about the meals I ate there in the future) but I like his book and am using it more and more. I really like the extra little stories and insights he tells about each recipe.

Cook partially covered over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, adding water if necessary. Remove cilantro. Garnish with the reserved julienned poblanos. One of Millers favorite sauces, similar to one served at Capri in San Cristobal de las Casas, in southern Mexico It is a rustic-style sauce that traditionally is cooked in the morning and is used throughout the day.
