With a slotted spoon, remove egg from water and gently pat with a pa-per towel to remove extra water.

Use the freshest eggs possible for this recipe, so the yolk and white will cling together while cooking. Huevos Rancheros are traditionally made with fried eggs, but poaching the eggs reduces total fat content for the meal.
