We'll begin with empanadas, pastries filled with beef, tomatoes, potatoes and herbs. Flautas are next with chicken in a jalapeno/garlic paste and fried crisp in a corn tortillas. We'll then prepare authentic Mexican rice prepared with onions, garlic, tomatoes and fresh cilantro along with Mexican style corn prepared with lime aioli, cayenne pepper and Cotija cheese. Fajitas follow with tender strips of marinated beef and chicken with fresh sauteed bell peppers and onions wrapped in a warm tortilla shell. We’ll finish this fiesta with a Yucatan-style delight, fresh coconut blended with rich custard in a wonderful nutty crust, baked to a caramel brown, and served with crème fraȋche.
This class includes both demonstration and hands-on instruction. Many food items are prepped by the Chef in advance in order to get through these amazing recipes in 3 hours.
