INGREDIENTS

  • 12 ounces Mexican queso fresco, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
  • About 1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper, preferably coarsely ground
  • 6 tostadas (crisp-fried tortillas), homemade or store-bought
  • About 1/2 cup (or more) Oaxacan Pasilla Salsa (linked below)
  • A handful of cilantro leaves, if you have it

INSTRUCTIONS

In a medium bowl, combine the queso fresco with the oil, oregano and black pepper.  The flavor will be best if you let the mixture stand for a few minutes.  Pile a portion of the cheese mixture onto each tostada, then top with a spoonful of the Oaxacan Pasilla Salsa and some cilantro leaves if you have them.
