Ingredients
TACOS INGREDIENTS
- 6 medium-sized corn tortillas
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
- 15 small white potatoes, peeled and chopped in small squares
- 5 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
- 2 jalapeños, finely sliced and diced into smaller pieces
- 1 large avocado, cubed
- 500 g boiled pinto beans
- Coriander, to taste
- sea salt, to taste
- Vegan Mozzarella Sauce, recipe below
- 1 lemon, optional
VEGAN MOZZARELLA SAUCE
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 1/3 cup refined coconut oil, melted. The one that does not taste like coconut!
- 1/2 tsp vegan lactic acid powder
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/3 cup tapioca flour
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 3 cups water
- 1/4 tsp chili powder, optionally
Instructions
VEGAN MOZZARELLA SAUCE
- Melt the refined coconut oil in the microwave or using a double boiler.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the cashews, melted coconut oil, vegan lactic acid powder, nutritional yeast, tapioca flour, sea salt, optional chili powder, and water, and blend until very smooth.
- Pour the blend into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, over medium-high heat, stirring continuously until it thickens.
- Now the mozzarella sauce is ready to consume along with your favourite dishes.
TACOS
- Using a large non-stick skillet, over medium heat, heat the olive oil and saute the onion until tender and transparent. Add the cubed potatoes and let them cook for around 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally so they cook evenly.
- Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
- When potatoes are nearly done, stir in the chopped tomatoes. When the potatoes feel ready, add the diced jalapeño slices and stir through.
- Stir in the pinto beans and optionally sprinkle salt. Cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from the fire.
- To make hard taco shells, hang tortillas over the rack wires in your oven for 5 minutes.
- Assembling time: take a tortilla and fill it with some taco potato-bean mix, cubed avocado, coriander, a dollop of vegan cheese, lemon juice and the salsa of your choice. Enjoy!
