PAMBAZO MEXICANO



Pambazo Mexicano image

This particular bread, also called Pambazo Mexicano, is very similar to a Kaiser roll but dusted with flour and without the seeds. In Mexico City, a Pambazo is a sandwich made of a particular type of bread stuffed with potatoes and chorizo and then drenched in a guajillo sauce.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 ½ cups potatoes, diced
3 guajillo peppers (seeds, and veins removed)
2 chorizos (3 oz. each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 garlic clove
8 black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano
6 Teleras or Kaiser rolls (sliced lengthwise)
1 ½ cup of shredded iceberg lettuce
¼ cup crumbled cheese
2 tablespoons Mexican cream
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place the diced potatoes in a saucepan with hot water and cook over medium-high heat. It will take about 10-12 minutes for the potatoes to be cooked.
  • Place the guajillo peppers in a bowl with hot water to soften while the potatoes are cooking.
  • In the meantime, cook the chorizo in a skillet over medium-high heat. It will be ready in about 8 minutes.
  • By this time the potatoes should be ready, so remove them from heat and drain. Next, stir them into the skillet with the chorizo, and keep cooking for three minutes. This is just enough time to allow the flavors to blend and the potatoes to get a little more tender. Set aside.
  • Place guajillo peppers, 1 cup of soaking water, garlic clove, oregano, and peppercorns into a blender. Process until you have a smooth sauce. Strain and place in a bowl.
  • Heat a griddle and add a 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Place the sliced rolls upside down and brush their tops all over with the Guajillo salsa. Flip the rolls so the tops get a little warm and crispy. This step will be about a minute per side. Repeat the process with the rest of the rolls, adding oil to the skillet as needed.
  • To assemble the Pambazo, place some chorizo and potatoes on each toasted roll, then top with the shredded lettuce, cream, and cheese. Serve with a hot salsa or pickled jalapeños. Enjoy!

MEXICAN PAMBAZO MY WAY



Mexican Pambazo My Way image

This is a wonderful recipe I learned from my husband's family from Mexico City, which I adapted a bit for my family. It's a favorite and our children especially love this one. Just be sure to get out your napkins...this one is messy!

Time 1h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds extra-lean ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder, or more to taste
1 tablespoon white vinegar
salt to taste
2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 large carrots, chopped
12 medium sandwich rolls
1 (28 ounce) can red enchilada sauce (also called red chili sauce)
1 cup vegetable oil, or as needed
1 cup shredded lettuce, or to taste
½ cup crumbled queso fresco, or to taste
1 medium avocado, sliced, or to taste
¼ cup sour cream, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, jalapeno, garlic, chili powder, vinegar, and salt in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Boil the potatoes and carrots just until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and dice them.
  • Cut rolls lengthwise and hollow out, removing some of the bread in the center of the rolls with your fingers. Lay the rolls in the sauce with the outsides down. These should look like little boats floating in the sauce.
  • Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry the sauce-soaked roll halves in batches until browned on the outside, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Fill the bottoms of the fried rolls with the meat filling, then lettuce, cheese, and avocado slices. Spread sour cream on the undersides of the tops of the rolls. Place the tops on the rolls and serve.
