CRISPY POTATO TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Thoroughly wash the potatoes and peel the skin off. Cut into smaller pieces and place in a pot of cold water.

• Place softened potatoes into a large bowl. Mix in sour cream, garlic, cumin, salt pepper and oregano, and mash until well combined.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel or paper towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds, so they don't break.

• Heat one inch of vegetable oil in a pan. Carefully, place the potato tacos in the pan, allowing them to cook for about two minutes on each side.
• Once they have developed a golden color, remove from oil and strain excess oil off on a paper towel.
• Serve with your favorite toppings.

CRISPY POTATO TACOS

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until soft enough to mash, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain. Add milk, butter, and white pepper and mash over medium heat until mixed, adding a splash more milk if needed. Stir in Parmesan and cotija cheeses; continue stirring over medium heat until nice and thick.
• Wrap the stack of tortillas in a towel (or paper towels) and microwave on high until softened, about 45 seconds.
• Spread 2 heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture on half of a tortilla, then sprinkle with cilantro and press the other half of the tortilla over potatoes to make a taco shape; the mixture will hold the taco together. Continue to assemble tacos while tortillas are warm.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and fry the tacos, turning them over occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

POTATO TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the sauce: In a blender, combine the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeño, tomato bouillon, and water. Blend for 20 seconds, or until smooth.
• Pour the tomato sauce into a small saucepan, then simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, until reduced by half. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, make the tacos: Add the potatoes to a small pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
• Transfer the potatoes to a medium bowl. Carefully remove the skins and discard. Add the butter, paprika, dehydrated onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper and use a potato masher to mash until smooth and evenly combined.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp kitchen towel or paper towels and microwave for 1 minute to warm (this will prevent the tortillas from breaking when folded).
• With a spoon, spread the potato mixture onto one side of each tortilla, then fold the other side of the tortilla over the filling to seal.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 325°F (160°C).
• Working a few at a time, place the tacos in the hot oil and fry for 1-2 minutes, then flip and fry for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Transfer the tacos to plates and top with the cabbage, tomato sauce, and Cotija cheese. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
