Tortitas De Papa Cruda Y Elote Potato And Corn Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium-size bowl, mix the 1 tablespoon of olive oil, vinegar and mustard. In another bowl combine the egg, flour, salt and pepper. Add the vinaigrette. While beating, add the milk, a little at a time. Add the string beans. Heat the oil in a medium-size skillet, over a medium heat. Place the tortitas de ejotes, in patties 2 inches in diameter, in the skillet. Cook them until golden brown on both sides. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Soak 4 wooden skewers in water, 30 minutes. Preheat a grill to high.
• Insert a skewer into each ear of corn. Brush the corn with vegetable oil. Grill, turning, until charred all over, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Brush the grilled corn with the mayonnaise and sprinkle with the cheese. Sprinkle with chile powder and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Pour in enough cold water to cover and add a small handful of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Adjust the heat so the water is simmering and cook until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a paring knife, about 10 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, start making the eggs: Put the eggs in a separate saucepan and pour in enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then adjust the heat to medium-low. Cook the eggs for exactly 10 minutes. Drain the hot water and cool the eggs in the pan under cold running water for several minutes. Peel, and set aside.
• When the potatoes are tender, drain them and put them in a serving bowl. Immediately sprinkle the vinegar over them and set aside to cool. Don't stir the potatoes too much while still hot, as they tend to fall apart and look unattractive.
• Once the potatoes are cool, add the olive oil and chives and stir gently to coat the potatoes with oil. Season the salad, to taste, with salt and pepper and toss again. Cut the eggs into quarters and decorate the top of the salad. Sprinkle with diced red pepper, if using. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Arrange the bacon on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place under the broiler, cook for 4 minutes, remove from the oven and flip each piece to its opposite side. Place back under the broiler and cook until crisp. Remove from the baking sheet and drain on 3 paper towels. Set aside.
• Boil the potatoes in 2 to 3 cups of water until tender. Drain and set aside.
• In a 12-inch nonstick oven proof saute pan heat the olive oil and butter on medium heat. Add the sofrito and stir-fry until golden brown. Add the potatoes and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste. Beat the eggs until fluffy and add the spinach, mix well.
• Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and shake the pan a bit while the eggs begin to set. Using a heat resistant spatula pull the egg mixture from the sides of the pan slightly tipping the pan in the same direction allowing the eggs to fill up the space. Repeat 2 or 3 more times going around entire pan. Place the pan under the broiler for 10 minutes or until golden brown on top.
• Cut into wedges and serve with warm crusty bread or whole-grain toast!
