Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small white onion roughly chopped into small pieces
- 4 garlic cloves finely minced
- 400 g vegan chorizo
- ½ cup mozzarella
- 2 medium potatoes peeled cut into bitesize pieces & boiled until tender
- 1 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- 6 corn tortillas
Toppings
- sour cream
- tomato salsa
- guacamole
- coriander
- limes
Instructions
Cook the Potatoes
- Peel and dice the potatoes, then place in cold water and boil. Simmer until fork-tender. Drain and lightly mash with a fork so they’re soft but still a bit chunky. Season if preferred, use paprika, garlic powder and onion salt and add a tablespoon of butter and mix in.
Heat the oven
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
Sauté the Filling
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. When warm, add onion and cook until soft and golden, then stir in garlic. Add vegan chorizo and cook until warmed through and slightly crispy. Mix in the mashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
Fill, Bake and Fold
- Place mozzarella on one side of the tortillas. Spoon 3–4 tablespoons of potato and chorizo filling on top on the mozzarella. Bake for 2-3 minutes. Take out, fold over into halves and spray with olive oil (makes them crispy).
Bake or Fry
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until golden and crisp.
Serve
- Plate your crispy taquitos with fresh salsa, guacamole, coriander, sour cream and lime wedges.
