Recipe for Breakfast:
Rajas con Queso Breakfast Tacos
Serves 4
Ingredients
- 8 poblano peppers
- 1 bag extra-crisp tater tots
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, grated or chopped
- 1 cup fire roasted frozen corn kernels
- 1 cup Mexican crema or crème fraiche
- 1 cup shredded Asadero or Monterey Jack or mozzarella cheese
- 10 eggs
- 2 teaspoons chipotle Tabasco or jalapeño Tabasco
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced, both whites and greens
- A handful of cilantro leaves, chopped
- 12-15 small flour tortillas
Preparation
- Place peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet and char evenly under broiler to blacken. Next, place peppers in a bowl and cover. Let them cool. Peel, halve lengthwise, seed, and stem the peppers. Slice the peppers to make about ½ inch thick pieces.
- For the tots, preheat the oven to 435 F or according to the instructions on the package. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the tots in a single, even layer. Bake for 25 minutes or until crisp. While the tots are baking, mix about 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, cumin, and coriander in a ramekin. When tots come out of oven, sprinkle evenly with seasoning.
- Heat a medium- to large-sized skillet over medium to medium-high heat with olive oil – 1 turn of the pan. Add the onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add garlic and peppers and toss to combine. Then add the corn to heat through. Add the crema and stir to mix. Then add the cheese and turn with a spatula to melt. Lower the heat and cover to keep warm.
- Whisk up the eggs. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the hot sauce.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter, and when it foams, add the eggs, and cook to desired doneness. Top with scallions.
- Blister and soften the tortillas over an open flame or in a dry stainless-steel skillet over high heat.
- To build one taco, fill with rajas con queso, top with tots, add eggs and cilantro, and serve.
