Potato Tacos Recipe

I'm a fan, Jeremy is a fan, we are all fans! :)

Ingredients
10 fresh corn tortillas
2 large red-skinned potatoes, peeled and cut in 1/2-inch cubes
4 1/2 tbsp. olive oil
2 poblano chile peppers
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 cup chopped onion
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 ear white corn, stripped of kernels (or an ear of corn on the side!)
2 scallions, chopped
Salt & pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro - I like lots, but depending on your taste, you might want 1/4 cup chopped
1 lime
Fresh avocado, diced

Preparation
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a skillet add 3 tbsp of the olive oil and add the potatoes and fry them until crispy and brown on the outside and cooked inside. Meanwhile slice the poblano chiles in half, and while wearing gloves, remove the ribs and the seeds. Add the peppers cut-side down to a baking dish that has been lightly coated with olive oil and roast them in the oven for about 10 minutes. Chop them up and set aside. (We did do this, because I didnt have this, it still tasted good!)

When the potatoes finish cooking remove them to a plate lined with paper towels. Add the remaining 1 tbsp. of oil to the skillet and cook the onions, garlic, celery, bell pepper, and corn. Add salt & pepper to taste, and juice the lime and add it to the skillet and cook on low for 5 minutes. Stir well.

Heat a large skillet or griddle and warm up the tortillas on each side, about 5 minutes per side. If you don't do this, they will have a hard, rubbery texture. Warming them helps to soften them.

To assemble the tacos, place some potato on the tortilla, some roasted poblanos, then the veg/lime mixture, and top with scallion, cilantro, and avocado.

Ruth's additions: We really enjoyed this! We tried it as a taco, and a taco salad kind of deal! I liked it better as a taco, even though it was a bit messy! :) YUMMMMM!! We also topped ours with a fresh salsa (tomatoes, jalapenos, onions, garlic an cilantro!)

Much thanks to my sister Emily for this recipe!!
