Time 35m

Yield 12 sopes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (18-ounce) package prepared polenta
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/4 cups jarred salsa
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons hot sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 cup shredded lettuce

Steps:

  • Slice the polenta in half crosswise. Then slice each half into 6 rounds, about 1/2-inch thick, so that you have 12 rounds total.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Gently slide each polenta round into the hot oil using a spatula. If your pan is not large enough then fry 6 at a time. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined sheet tray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the beans, salsa and the 2 teaspoons hot sauce. Mash the beans with a fork or potato masher.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, remaining 1 tablespoon hot sauce and the lime juice and mix until well blended.
  • Build the sopes by spreading about 2 tablespoons mashed black beans on top of a fried polenta round. Top with a small amount of shredded lettuce and about 1 tablespoon of the salsa and drizzle with some of the sour cream mixture.

The sopes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

These sopes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I substituted corn tortillas for the masa harina, and the sopes still turned out great. I'll definitely be making these again.
