Preparation method

Preparing the spiced Mexican bean mash

1

Heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil in a pan, then add 1 finely chopped onion and 3 cloves of crushed fresh garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent and fragrant.

2

Add the drained 480 g black beans, 1 tsp ground cumin, and 1 tsp fine salt. Using a potato masher or a fork, thoroughly mash the beans directly in the pan until thick and creamy while cooking together for 3-5 minutes.

Filling the tacos and steaming with hot spiced oil

1

Warm the 10 corn tortillas in a dry hot pan or in the microwave for about 20 seconds so that they become pliable and easy to fold.

Chef's tip

The essence of tacos de canasta is the so-called 'sweating' (sudado): thanks to the hot oil and covered resting, the tortillas become incredibly juicy, tender, and flavorful.

As an accompaniment, you can also serve freshly pickled red onions or a mildly spicy salsa taquera for an even more authentic Mexican street food experience.
