Add the remaining tortilla chips to the pan with the tomatoes, stir and then place them in the ovenproof dish on top of the others. Sprinkle with the remaining feta and place under the grill for 3-4 minutes until the cheese has melted and the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.

Remove the tortilla chips from the grill, place the fried eggs between the tortillas, sprinkle with the red onion and coriander and serve with lime wedges.
