Gallo Pinto Tostadas
-
Yield: 2
Ingredients
- For the Gallo Pinto:
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1 bunch of green onions
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 medium red pepper, diced
- 1 cup black beans, drained with liquid reserved
- juice from one lime
- 2 tablespoon worcestershire sauce (I use Annie’s vegan)
- pinch salt
- 1/3 cup loosely packed cilantro, divided
- For the Fried Plantain:
- 1 large plaintain
- 1 tablespoon walnut oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Everything Else:
- 4 corn tortillas
- 2 eggs, poached or scrambled
- 1-2 avocados
Instructions
- Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add in onions and saute until the onions become translucent. Stir, continue to cook until pepper is cooked through. Stir in beans with 2 tablespoon of liquid, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, and salt/pepper. If you are using precooked dried beans, just add 2 tablespoon of water. Continue to cook until the liquid has mostly disappeared (about 4-5 minutes.) Stir in about half the cilantro and rice. Continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes. 2. While beans cook, poach or scramble eggs. If you want a tostado that is easier to eat with your hands, I recommend scrambled. 3. Next, heat walnut oil and honey in skillet. Slice plantain in 1/2” thick slices and add to oil. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes until planatin is soft. 4. Finally, heat corn tortillas in a skillet until crisp. 5. To assemble, place tortillas on a plate and pile with rice/beans and eggs. Serve plantains on the side or pile them on the tostada with everything else! Sprinkle with remaining cilantro and serve.
