Potato Tacos
Great Lunch idea.
Ingredients
- 12 corn tortillas – softened in hot oil and drained
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded lettuce chopped
- fresh jalapenos or chili pepper of choice
- 3/4 lb. cooked red or white potatoes – unpeeled and chopped fine
- 1 cup tomatoes – chopped
- 1/2 medium onion – chopped
- 3/4 cup monterey jack cheese – grated
- 1/2 tsp salt
- spicy salsa – warmed
Method
In a large bowl, mix the potatoes, onion, peppers, and salt. Fill
each tortilla with about two Tbsp of the mixture and secure with toothpicks. Heat oil – hot enough for frying. If the temperature is not hot enough, the tortillas will absorb too much oil. Fry tacos until golden brown in 1/4 inch of oil, being careful not to get oil into the filling. Drain well. Serve immediately with salsa, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, and extra hot peppers.
