Huitlacoche Filling and Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Huitlacoche Filling

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  2. 2

    Cook the Huitlacoche

    Add the huitlacoche to the skillet. Stir in cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until heated through and flavors meld. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, warm the mini corn tortillas over medium heat, about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    To assemble, place a spoonful of the huitlacoche mixture on each tortilla. Top with crumbled queso fresco and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
