Categories     Meat Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 19

Tostada shells:
4 large tortillas (See note 1 and note 2)
2 tablespoons olive oil
some chili flakes
some dried oregano
salt
Tostadas:
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (125 g)
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons chopped coriander (or parsley)
1 organic lime
2 chorizo sausages (each weighing about 125 g/ 4.4 oz)
1/2 cup kidney beans (100 g)
2 small fresh jalapeňos or 6-8 pickled jalapeňos pieces from a jar (to taste)
8 radishes
4 crispy salad leaves
1 cup g/ 3.5 oz/ 1 cup grated cheese (100 g, See note 3)
some chili flakes
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius/ 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
  • Season: Place the tortillas on the baking trays. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt, chili flakes, and dried oregano.
  • Bake the tortillas for 4 minutes. Turn over and bake for about 3 minutes more or until crisp and lightly browned. Remove from the oven.
  • See above for tips on storing the tostada shells.
  • Stir the yogurt with salt and fresh herbs. Wash and dry the lime. Add the zest and the juice of 1/2 of the lime to the yogurt, stir well. Set aside. Keep the other half of the lime for later, cut it in wedges, and serve the wedges with the tostadas.
  • Sausages: Remove the chorizo casings. Heat a nonstick pan and add the sausages, breaking them into pieces with a wooden spoon. Fry over medium-low heat for about 3 minutes, breaking all the lumps with the wooden spoon.
  • Add the kidney beans and some salt.
  • Cook: Use a potato masher to roughly mash the chorizo and bean mixture. Cook until cooked through and rather crispy, about 7 minutes or so. Adjust the taste with more salt and some pepper, if necessary.
  • Prepare topping: While the sausages are cooking, shred the salad leaves, finely dice the radishes and finely chop the jalapeňos. Grate the cheese.
  • Top tostadas: Spread some yogurt on top of the tostadas. Divide the chorizo and bean mixture between the tostadas. Top with the shredded salad, radishes, jalapeňos and sprinkle with the cheese and chili flakes.
  • Serve immediately with lime wedges.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups diced cherry tomatoes (about 8 ounces)
1/2 small red onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons pickled jalapeños, finely chopped, plus 1 tablespoon brine
1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro, chopped, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
8 tostada shells
1 14.5-ounce can refried beans
1/2 pound fresh chorizo, casings removed
1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
8 large eggs
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Combine the tomatoes, red onion, jalapeños and brine, cilantro, lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Arrange the tostadas on 2 baking sheets and bake until golden brown, rotating the pans halfway through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven. Divide the refried beans among the tostadas (about 2 heaping tablespoons each); spread evenly, leaving a 1/8-inch border. Crumble the chorizo on top of the beans. Return the tostadas to the oven and cook until the chorizo is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Top with the cheese and continue baking until melted, 1 to 2 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and cook until the whites are partially set, 2 to 3 minutes. Cover and cook until the whites are fully set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the tostadas among plates. Top with the tomato mixture, fried eggs and more cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup canola oil
Four 6-inch corn tortillas
Kosher salt
5 ounces fresh chorizo, casings removed
12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
One 10-ounce bag frozen corn kernels, thawed
2/3 cup canned green enchilada sauce, warmed
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
1/2 Fresno chile or jalapeno, thinly sliced
Cilantro leaves for garnish
Lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Heat the canola oil in a 14-inch heavy bottom skillet or low-sided Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil is very hot, add the tortillas 2 at a time and fry until golden brown and puffed, about 1 minute on each side. Transfer to a wire rack to drain. Sprinkle with salt while hot.
  • Cook the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up chunks of meat with a wooden spoon until the meat is browned and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and continue to cook and stir until the shrimp are opaque, 2 to 4 minutes longer. Add the corn and cook until the corn is warmed and the chorizo and shrimp are cooked through.
  • To serve, place one fried tortilla on a plate. Top with a quarter of the chorizo and shrimp mixture. Spoon a quarter of the enchilada sauce over top. Sprinkle with a quarter of the queso fresco, a few slices of chile and cilantro leaves. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Serve each with a lime wedge.

Tips:

  • To make the chorizo, use a good quality chorizo sausage. You can find it in most grocery stores in the Mexican food section.
  • If you don't have a comal, you can use a large skillet or griddle.
  • To make the salsa, use fresh, ripe tomatoes. You can also use canned tomatoes, but fresh tomatoes will give the salsa a more flavorful taste.
  • If you don't have any tostada shells, you can use tortilla chips or even crackers.
  • You can top the tostadas with any of your favorite toppings. Some popular options include shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Tostadas are a delicious and easy-to-make Mexican dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are perfect for a quick and easy meal, and they can also be dressed up for a more formal occasion.
