Crispy Potato Birria Tacos

• 8 thin-skinned Yukon potatoes, cut in half

• 2 cups of water

• 1 InstaBomb Birria meal bomb

• Corn tortillas

• Shredded Oaxaca cheese (or plant-based mozzarella, Monterey Jack, cheddar, or queso fresco for Vegan)

• 4 tablespoons of avocado oil (for frying)

• Chopped white onion (for filling)

• Chopped cilantro (for filling)

• Fresh lime (for serving)

Cook the Potatoes:

• In your Instant Pot, add 2 cups of water, halved Yukon potatoes, and the INSTABOMB BIRRIA BOMB spice blend.

• Cook on high pressure for 45 minutes.

• Once cooking is complete, strain out the consommé liquid and set it aside for dipping sauce.

Mash the Potatoes:

• In a bowl, hand-mash the cooked potatoes.

• Stir in ½ cup of the reserved consommé liquid until well combined and creamy.

Assemble the Tacos:

• Preheat a cast-iron skillet or nonstick pan over medium heat.

• Add 4 tablespoons of avocado oil to the pan.

Prepare the Tortillas:

• Quickly dip each corn tortilla in the reserved consommé, ensuring they take on some color and flavor without soaking them through.

• Place the dipped tortillas flat in the pan.

Fill the Tacos:

• On one half of the tortilla, add at least 1 tablespoon of shredded plant-based cheese, followed by approximately 2 tablespoons of the mashed potato mixture.

• Add chopped white onion and chopped cilantro to the filling.

• Squeeze fresh lime juice over the filling before folding the tortilla.

Fry the Tacos:

• Fold the tortilla over and press down with a spatula. Flip if needed for even crispiness.

• Ensure the tacos are super crispy to hold up when dipped in the consommé. Avoid overstuffing the tortillas to prevent them from bursting.

Keep Warm:

• Place the cooked tacos in the oven at 200°F to keep warm until ready to serve.

Serve:

• Serve with ¼ cup of reserved consommé (dipping sauce) topped with additional chopped cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
