  • Saucepot
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Cups Refried Beans Recipe in blog
  • 12 Corn Tortillas Fried
  • 3 Cups Vegetable oil
  • 1 Cup Cotija Cheese
  • ½ Cabbage Thinly sliced
  • 2 Roma Tomatoes Sliced
  • 2 Russet Potatoes Boiled, Peeled, Sliced

Optional

  • Salsa Valentina

Instructions
 

  • Using my bean recipe smash your beans to make refried beans. Make sure to leave them very loose and soupy.
  • In a saute pan, add your vegetable oil and heat up until hot. Once your oil is hot, fry your tortillas one at a time. You want both sides to be golden brown and crispy, like a chip
  • As soon as all of your tortillas are fried, carefully add a spoonful or two of your refried beans on to your tortillas
  • Sprinkle some cotija cheese over the tostada and add your desired amount of potato, cabbage, and tomato.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

For this recipe it is better to always make it fresh the day of. The refried beans can survive up to a week in the fridge in a air tight containter. Any leftover veggies will last up to one day in a air tight container.
