Preparation

1h 30 mins

Clean and wash the romeritos with plenty of water to remove the dirt. Boil them in boiling water with salt and drain them once cooked. Peel the shrimp and grind them with the bread until they turn into a fine powder. Beat the egg whites to the point of nougat and then add the yolks, the ground shrimp, and the baking powder. Form a paste by taking teaspoons of it to fry in very hot oil on low heat so they don't burn and puff up. Let them brown and drain them. Clean and boil the nopales in boiling water with salt and a piece of onion, drain them and let them cool. Toast and devein the chiles and soak them in hot water. Toast and grind the sesame seeds with cinnamon, tortilla, bread, almonds, and salt. Once everything is well ground, add a little cold water so it is not too thick and add the rest of the ingredients. Season with salt and let it simmer for half an hour or until everything is well incorporated and the sauce is slightly reduced.
