Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the Idaho and sweet potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Onions and Peppers

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sliced poblano peppers. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the peppers are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine the Ingredients

    Add the boiled potatoes to the skillet with the onions and peppers. Gently mash the potatoes with a fork while mixing everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over low heat until pliable, about 30 seconds on each side.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Fill each tortilla with the potato mixture, and top with salsa verde, crumbled queso cotija, a drizzle of crema, and chopped cilantro.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos warm, with extra salsa verde and crema on the side.
