Mexican Pambazo My Way Food

PAMBAZO MEXICANO

Steps:

• Place the diced potatoes in a saucepan with hot water and cook over medium-high heat. It will take about 10-12 minutes for the potatoes to be cooked.
• Place the guajillo peppers in a bowl with hot water to soften while the potatoes are cooking.
• In the meantime, cook the chorizo in a skillet over medium-high heat. It will be ready in about 8 minutes.
• By this time the potatoes should be ready, so remove them from heat and drain. Next, stir them into the skillet with the chorizo, and keep cooking for three minutes. This is just enough time to allow the flavors to blend and the potatoes to get a little more tender. Set aside.
• Place guajillo peppers, 1 cup of soaking water, garlic clove, oregano, and peppercorns into a blender. Process until you have a smooth sauce. Strain and place in a bowl.
• Heat a griddle and add a 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Place the sliced rolls upside down and brush their tops all over with the Guajillo salsa. Flip the rolls so the tops get a little warm and crispy. This step will be about a minute per side. Repeat the process with the rest of the rolls, adding oil to the skillet as needed.
• To assemble the Pambazo, place some chorizo and potatoes on each toasted roll, then top with the shredded lettuce, cream, and cheese. Serve with a hot salsa or pickled jalapeños. Enjoy!

MEXICAN PAMBAZO

Steps:

• Heat the two cups of water. Turn the heat off when it begins to boil, add the guajillo peppers, ancho peppers, garlic and 1/2 the onion. Cover and let soak for 20 minutes.
• While the peppers soak, chop the other half of the onion into thin pieces. Heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan and fry the onions for 3 minutes. Add the chorizo and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat then add the potatoes, half a teaspoon of salt and stir until the potatoes are covered in chorizo. Set aside.
• Pour the peppers, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt and a cup of the water in which they were cooked into a blender and mix until you have a thick sauce. Empty into a wide container.
• Add 4 tablespoons of oil to a pan.
• Take one roll and cut it in half, but don't let it come apart entirely. Submerge in the sauce and immediately fry in the hot oil, one minute on each side.
• Remove from the oil, spread refried beans on half of the surface, fill with chorizo potatoes, and cover with lettuce and cream to taste. Serve immediately.
• Repeat until you're done with the rolls.
• Enjoy!

MEXICAN PAMBAZO MY WAY

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, jalapeno, garlic, chili powder, vinegar, and salt in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Boil the potatoes and carrots just until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and dice them.
• Cut rolls lengthwise and hollow out, removing some of the bread in the center of the rolls with your fingers. Lay the rolls in the sauce with the outsides down. These should look like little boats floating in the sauce.
• Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry the sauce-soaked roll halves in batches until browned on the outside, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Fill the bottoms of the fried rolls with the meat filling, then lettuce, cheese, and avocado slices. Spread sour cream on the undersides of the tops of the rolls. Place the tops on the rolls and serve.
