Ingredients
- 2 medium, diced small russet potatoes
- 2 poblano peppers
- 3 tbsp avocado oil
- 1/2 yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 4 cassava flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 lime
- 3/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- 1
Roast the poblanos directly over a gas flame or under the broiler, turning until the skin is blistered and black, about 8 minutes. Steam in a covered bowl for 5 minutes, then peel, seed, and slice into strips.
- 2
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes to brown, then toss and cook 8 more minutes until tender.
- 3
Add the onion and cook 3 minutes, then stir in the garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.
- 4
Fold in the poblano strips and warm through. Squeeze half the lime over the filling and stir in half the cilantro.
- 5
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side. Divide the filling among the tortillas and top with the remaining cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
