Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 large russet potatoes
¾ cup sour cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon cumin
salt, to taste
½ teaspoon oregano
8 corn tortillas
oil, for frying
sour cream, to taste
salsa, to taste
cotija cheese, to taste
¼ cup fresh cilantro, to taste

Steps:

  • Thoroughly wash the potatoes and peel the skin off. Cut into smaller pieces and place in a pot of cold water.
  • Bring to a boil over medium high heat and allow potatoes to cook until they are soft.
  • 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.
  • On half of the tortilla, place about one Tbsp. of the potato mixture and spread it around. Fold the tortilla in half and repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
  • 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.
  • Enjoy!

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups sweet potato, cut into 1/2 (1/4 cm)
2 cups poblano pepper, cut into 1/2 in pieces (1/4 cm)
¼ cup olive oil
1 oz McCormick® Original Taco Seasoning, 1 packet
½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed
10 corn tortillas, warmed
½ cup cotija cheese, crumbled
1 cup shredded lettuce
½ medium red onion, thinly sliced
½ cup water
½ cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 medium avocado, pitted and peeled
¼ cup plain yogurt
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes and poblanos. Drizzle over olive oil and add the McCormick® Original Taco Seasoning packet. Mix together.
  • Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, stirring halfway, until soft and browned.
  • Meanwhile, make the pickled onions: Add the onion to a medium heatproof bowl.
  • Add the water, vinegar, and sugar to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Pour the pickling liquid over the onion to submerge. Let cool.
  • Make the avocado crema: Add the avocado, yogurt, salt, and lime juice to a blender or food processor, and blend on high speed until smooth.
  • When the vegetables have finished roasting, remove from the oven and immediately transfer to a large bowl, then toss with the black beans.
  • To assemble the tacos, spread 1-2 tablespoons of avocado crema in the center of a warm tortilla and top with about ⅓ cup of the roasted sweet potato mixture, 1 tablespoon pickled onions, ½ tablespoon crumbled Cotija cheese, and a small bunch of microgreens. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Enjoy!
