INGREDIENTS
- 2 fresh poblano chiles
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium white onion, sliced 1/4-inch thick
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1 cup packed, roughly chopped lobes of oyster mushrooms
- 6 ounce can of huitlacoche (available at Mexican markets)
- Salt
- 2 to 3 tablespoons epazote leaves, chopped
- 12 corn tortillas
INSTRUCTIONS
Roast the chiles directly over a gas flame or 4 inches below a very hot broiler until blackened on all sides, about 5 minutes for open flame, about 10 minutes for broiler. Cover with a kitchen towel and let stand 5 minutes. Peel, remove stem and seeds. Then rinse briefly. Chop into ¼-inch pieces.
In a large (10-inch) skillet, heat the oil over medium. Add the onion and fry, stirring regularly, until lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook about 2 minutes more. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the tomato and cook, stirring occasionally, until the juices have reduced, about 4 minutes.
Add the poblanos to the tomato mixture along with the huitlacoche and other mushrooms, simmer stirring often, until reduced and quite thick, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, usually about 1 teaspoon, and mix in the epazote. Spoon the mixture into warm corn tortillas and top with queso añejo.
