Time 30m

Yield 10 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound green beans or a combination of green and yellow beans, trimmed
1 to 2 serrano or jalapeƱo chiles (to taste), minced
1/4 cup finely chopped red or white onion, soaked in cold water to cover for 5 minutes, then drained and rinsed (optional)
1/2 pound ripe red or yellow tomatoes (or a mix), diced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 ounces queso fresco or feta, crumbled
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh tomatillo salsa
10 corn tortillas
Shredded cabbage for the tacos (optional)

Steps:

  • Steam the green beans or blanch in salted boiling water for 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, then drain and dry on paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Cut into 3/4-inch lengths. Toss with the chiles, onion, tomatoes, cilantro, salt, pepper, cheese, and chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  • Whisk together the lime juice, olive oil and salsa. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Toss with the beans.
  • Heat the tortillas: wrap in a kitchen towel and place in a steamer basket over 1 inch of boiling water. Bring to a boil, cover the pot and steam 1 minute. Turn off the heat and allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes without uncovering. Top with a spoonful of the bean salad, garnish with a handful of shredded cabbage if desired, fold the tortilla over and serve.
