Ingredients

4 portions
  • enough Water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 12 nopales, cut into strips
  • 5 green tomatoes
  • 1/4 onions
  • 3 serrano peppers
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 cup fresh coriander
  • 6 poblano peppers
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/2 cups onion, in strips
  • 1/4 cups panela cheese, fallen apart
  • to taste corn tortilla

Preparation

Boil the water in a pot over medium heat, add salt, baking soda and nopales until they change color and are soft. Rinse with cold water and drain to avoid drooling.
For the sauce, in a pot with boiling water, cook the tomatoes, onion, garlic and chilies for around 25 minutes. Drain, chill and blend until a smooth sauce is obtained. Reserve.
Grill poblano chiles in a high heat on a griddle. Put them in a plastic bag and let them sweat around 15 to 20 minutes. With a knife, clean and unveil the chiles, cut into thin strips and reserve.
In a pot heats the oil, cook the onion, add the nopales and the slices and cook 5 minutes. Add the green sauce, cook until thick and season.
Serve on a plate, decorate with panela cheese and serve with warm corn tortillas.

PRESENTATION

Decorate with cheese, and serve in corn tortilla tacos.

TIPS

Sodium bicarbonate when cooking nopales will prevent them from being sluggish.
