POTATO & CACTUS GUISADO

Welcome back food family!






Here's a classic Mexican dish that's super fast to prepare and oh so tasty! 😋 Enjoy!!!



Servings: 8


Ingredients:

6 to 8 large POTATOES peeled and cubed

1-1/2 lbs CACTUS sliced, cooked and rinsed in water (can use store bought)

1/2 medium ONION diced

1 cup CILANTRO chopped

2 tbs OIL (Vegetable, Canola or Avocado)

KNORR CHICKEN BOUILLON to taste


Ingredients for the Salsa:

2 large GARLIC CLOVES

6 to 8 GUAJILLO PEPPERS stem and seeds removed

4 to 6 CHILE DE ARBOL

3 TOMATOES

1/4 ONION

2 cups WATER


Instructions:

1-Add all the salsa ingredients to a blender. Blend and set aside.


2-In a pan over medium heat add 1 tbs of OIL. Once hot toss in the POTATOES. Keep stirring for about 3 minutes then add the ONION and CILANTRO. Continue to mix until the onion is soft and translucent and the potatoes are soft. Approximately 5 minutes.


3-Move the potatoes, onion and cilantro to the sides of the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of OIL to the center of the pan. Give it about a minute to get hot then pour the SALSA in the pan. Keep stirring to mix with the veggies. At this point you can add more water if you like a more brothy salsa.


4-Add the CACTUS. Mix with the salsa and veggies. Season with KNORR CHICKEN BOUILLON to taste.


5-Lower the heat to low. Let it simmer for approximately 5 more minutes or until the potatoes are fully cooked. Enjoy with a steak or in tacos.
