Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes. In a pot, add the chopped potatoes, cover with water, and add salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 2

    Add Chile Colorado Sauce

    Pour the Chile Colorado sauce over the steamed potatoes and mix well. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  3. 3

    Fry the Tortillas

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until they are crispy. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Fill each crispy tortilla with the Chile Colorado potatoes, top with shredded lettuce, crumbled queso fresco, and drizzle with chiltepin salsa.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos warm and enjoy!
