Salsa Options

Method

Preparing the Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a medium pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a large skillet over medium heat, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk. Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet and pour the eggs over them. Stir occasionally until the eggs are fully cooked, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Mushroom Option (if using)

    In a separate skillet, add a bit of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced oyster mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet or directly over the stove flame, warm the flour tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

  2. 5

    Fill the Tacos

    On each tortilla, add a generous amount of the scrambled eggs and potato mixture. If desired, add the smoked beef barbacoa or the sautéed oyster mushrooms.

  3. 6

    Top with Queso and Salsa

    Sprinkle crumbled queso fresco on top of the filling and drizzle your choice of salsa (taquera verde, taquera roja, or salsa macha) over the tacos.
