Next stop in Food trip 2019 is Panama. I prepared Tortillas Asadas or in other words grilled corn tortillas. Mostly these served for breakfast in Panama with grilled sausages. These are thicker corn tortillas, which are grilled in small amount of vegetable oil. I served these tortillas with poached eggs and green herbs. It turned out to a very delicious and nutritional
breakfast.
Recipe I found from this blog:
https://thegiftedgabber.com/tortillas-asadas/
Unfortunately it was not possible to buy dried corn in our shops and I have made arrangements in recipe according to ingredients what were possible to buy.
Ingredients:
160 g Veski Mati corn groats
450 ml water
50 g cheese with strong taste (chopped into very small pieces). I used Valio Royal Gouda Red cheese, which gives to tortillas nice and strong cheese taste.
salt and black pepper
vegetable oil for frying
Place corn groats and water to pot and boil until the groats are soft. Add water in time of boiling if needed.
If you have got porridge with thicker consistency, then add chopped cheese (porridge should be still warm, so the cheese starts to melt right away). Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Let the tortilla dough cool down a little and form dough into small tortillas (with thickness up to 1 cm and diameter ca 6 cm) using your hands.
Heat the oil and fry tortillas from both sides until tortillas are nice and golden brown.
Grilled sausages and poached eggs are very suitable for serving with tortillas.
Delicious and nutritional breakfast is the best way to start a beautiful day. 😍
