Potato Rolled Tacos

Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 2 whole jalapeno peppers (or 1 depending on heat)
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups boiled potatoes (or mashed or any left over soft skillet potato leftovers)
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (your favorite kind)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • cooking oil (enough to lightly fry)

Recipe

  • 1 chop jalapeño peppers finely.
  • 2 chop cilantro.
  • 3 boil potatoes till easy to mash but still a little firm.
  • 4 mash potatoes and add jalapeños, taco seasoning, cilantro and cheese together.
  • 5 prepare tortillas by fast steaming so they are easy to roll. i usually boil water in a small pot a little smaller than the tortilla's then place a double paper towel on top and place one tortilla at a time for 2 or 3 seconds till steamed, then remove and replace as you go.
  • 6 take a steamed tortilla and spoon about 1 tablespoon of potato mixture in and roll gently. place in baking dish with the rolled side down. continue doing this lining them up in dish as you go.
  • 7 place in freezer for 15 minutes or until they become slightly stiff. i like this method better than toothpicks.
  • 8 heat oil on medium heat (i usually use olive oil).
  • 9 when oil is ready, place 4 tacos at a time with the rolled side down in pan.
  • 10 flip to other side when brown.
  • 11 remove and drain on paper towels.
  • 12 garnish as desired.
  • 13 i use sour cream mixed with taco sauce drizzled over the top.
