Cholupas Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bone Marrow Mashed Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the bone marrow in half lengthwise and roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden and bubbly. Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash the potatoes with the roasted bone marrow until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ribeye Steak

    Season the ribeye steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Once hot, sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Cholupas

    Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until pliable. Spread a layer of bone marrow mashed potatoes on each tortilla. Top with sliced ribeye, a sprinkle of cotija cheese, a spoonful of salsa verde crudo, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
