Create scrumptious Guatemalan chilaquilas by filling corn tortillas with queso fresco, onion, and tomato.
Ingredients:
  • 1 large tomato, quartered
  • 1 red onion, quartered
  • 1 (12 ounce) package queso fresco, cut into chunks
  • 12 thick corn tortillas
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 5 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions:
  • In a food processor, blend tomatoes and red onion until smooth. Gradually add queso fresco until a smooth paste forms.
  • Fill folded corn tortillas with the flavorful tomato and red onion paste.
  • In a bowl, use an electric mixer to beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add egg yolks one at a time, mixing well until fully incorporated into the egg whites.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, warm 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil. Dip one filled tortilla into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated and letting any extra drip off. Cook until each side turns a beautiful golden brown, approximately 2 minutes. Repeat the process with the remaining oil and filled tortillas.
