Preparation Time

Cooking Time

15 mins

Serves

4-6

Ingredients 

• Coarse salt
• 1 clove garlic
• 12 corn tortillas
• 1 jalapeno, stemmed
• 1 large avocado, peeled and pitted
• 1 small white onion, finely chopped
• 1 pound Mexican chorizo sausage, casing removed
• 3 medium tomatillos (about 4 ounces), husked, rinsed, and coarsely chopped
• 3 medium red-skin boiling or Yukon gold potatoes (about 1 ½ pounds), peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes (about 2 cups)

Directions

• 1 medium saucepan, bring 1 quart of salted water to a boil.
• Add potatoes and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet, combine chorizo and onion over medium heat.
• Stir until sausage is cooked through and onion is soft, about 10 minutes. Add potatoes and continue to cook over medium heat until potatoes begin to brown or about 8 minutes.
• As the mixture cooks, mash everything together a little with the back of a spoon or a spatula, scraping up any crusty bits of potatoes so that it roughly holds together. Cover, and keep warm over very low heat.
• Meanwhile, combine tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeno in a food processor. Pulse until fine, then add avocado and pulse until combined. Season with salt.
• Wrap tortillas in a warm, damp kitchen towel, put them in a microwave-safe casserole, and cover them. Warm in the microwave for 4 minutes, remove and let stand a few minutes. Top each tortilla with potato mixture and avocado salsa, fold in half, and serve.
