Preheat the oven to 180°C. For the marinade, heat a griddle over low heat and roast all the marinade spices along with the tomato, onion, garlic, and chiles; remove from the griddle and set aside. Soak the chiles in hot water to soften them. Blend the ingredients you roasted along with the soaked chiles and vegetable broth until you obtain a smooth marinade. In a bowl, mix the vegetables with the marinade, avocado oil, and salt. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. On a board, place the mixiote leaf, the corn husks, fill with the previous preparation, and tie it up like a mixiote. Place in a baking dish. Bake the mixiotes for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked, then remove from the oven. Serve your mixiotes with epazote, pickled onions, cured nopales, and accompany with tortillas.

Tips

When you roast your spices on the griddle, you’ll know they are ready when they start to release their aromas; this process helps intensify the flavors. Be careful to roast them over low heat, as they tend to burn easily.
