Categories     Low Protein

Time 30m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 -5 potatoes
2 teaspoons salt, to taste
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 cup monterey jack cheese
corn tortilla
1 cup vegetable oil or 1 cup canola oil
chopped lettuce
salsa
sour cream
Cotija cheese, finely grated
guacamole

Steps:

  • peel and cut potatoes into small squares then boil with salt until tender.
  • drain potatoes and then add sour cream and cheese and mix all together as if making mash potatos. They should be thick and a little chunky. Check the taste to make sure it's enough salt or you may also add a little garlic salt. Set aside and start on tortillas.
  • warm tortillas on a skillet or in microwave just to soften and keep them warm either in a plastic bag or in a tortilla warmer.
  • Scoop some of the potato mix onto your tortilla and you can either roll the tortillas or you can fold them in half. The potato makes the tortilla stick together or if you'd like you can hold with a toothpick.
  • Lastly warm the oil and fry your taquitos until gold and crisp. Then drain the oil of the taquitos by placing them on a cookie sheet lined with paper towels for a few minutes.
  • VOILA! Just add all the topings over your taquitos and enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best mashed potato filling, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes, as they have a high starch content and will mash smoothly.
  • Make sure to season the mashed potatoes well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as paprika, onion powder, or dried thyme.
  • To make the taquitos easier to roll, chill the mashed potatoes for at least 30 minutes before assembling.
  • Be sure to use a sharp knife to cut the taquitos into even pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Serve the taquitos with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Vegetarian mashed potato taquitos are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that everyone will enjoy.
