Crispy Potato Tacos

Here’s what you need:

Yield: 8 Tacos

Ingredients:
2 Large Russet Potatoes
3/4 cup Sour Cream
2 cloves Minced Garlic
1/2 tsp Cumin
Salt, to taste
1/2 tsp Oregano
8 Corn Tortillas
Oil for Frying

Optional Toppings:
Sour Cream
Salsa
Cotija Cheese
Cilantro

Instructions:

Thoroughly wash the potatoes & peel the skin off. Cut into smaller pieces and place in a pot of cold water. Bring to a boil over medium high heat and allow potatoes to cook until they are soft. Place softened potatoes into a large bowl. Mix in sour cream, cumin, salt and pepper and mash until well combined. Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel or paper towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds, so they don’t break. On half of the tortilla, place about 1 Tbsp. of the potato mixture and spread it around. Fold the tortilla in half and repeat with the rest of the tortillas. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a pan. Carefully, place the potato tacos in the pan, allowing them to cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Once they have developed a golden color, remove from oil and strain excess oil off on a paper towel. Serve with your favorite toppings & enjoy!

I thought this was an April fools joke.

These are actually called Tacos dorados or Tostadas, and they're an actual dish here in Mexico :V

[jazL]

my grandma makes these on a daily basis lmao. tacos de papa Lolol

[ambarmarquez]

Tacos dorados! Yo, skip the cilantro on top, instead add tomatoes, lettuce and onions. That's how you eat tacos dorados 😏
Also the refried beans and picadillo ones are needed lol

I have been eating these for a long ass time.

[sammysalo]

My mom used to make these, and we always called them "Wish Tacos", why you might ask? Because you wish you had some meat in em! They are very tasty even though it seems like a bit of a weird combo.

[LRdz]

Covered in lettuce instead of cilantro is delicious

[YK-xobz]

this channel should called "deep frying everything"...but I stilled subscribed though....

[yourneighbor]

If you guys want a slightly less greasy option. Grill them.

[clevernickname]

My first reaction to this is "The fuck?"

[VeroV]

I usually add sour cream, chopped lettuce, Tapatio hot sauce, and a very savory tomato sauce on top of my tacos. When my mom makes these she also makes some with refried beans inside instead of the potato and the taste just as good, maybe even better than the potato ones😋.

[mannylugo]

Tacos dorados doesn't have sour cream in the potatoes, it's only the potato with salt and when the taco its fried you can put inside of the taco some lettuce, (now you can use the sour cream), cotija cheese, and homemade salsa and that's a taco dorado.
