PURSLANE & EGG TACOS - TACOS DE VERDOLAGAS Y HUEVOS

Purslane/verdolagas is an invasive weed in many gardens. It's saving grace is that the best way to control it is to eat it. This vegetable green used in many Latin American countries. It is also popular as a salad green in France and other European countries, having similar taste and consistency to watercress. Verdolaga is also valued in Latin America for its medicinal properties. Purslane should be thoroughly washed and drained before using. Recipe courtesy of Forks, Fingers and Chopsticks.

Purslane and Avocado Tacos with Pico de Gallo image

Steps:

  • Make Pico de Gallo:
  • Combine tomatoes, onion, lime juice, chile, and cilantro in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let it stand while assembling the tacos.
  • Cook garlic in oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring, until pale golden. Add purslane with salt to taste and cook, stirring, until wilted and tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a sieve set over a bowl and let it drain.
  • Have a folded kitchen towel ready for the tortillas. Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot, then heat a tortilla, keeping the others covered, flipping it occasionally with tongs, until it puffs slightly and gets brown in spots, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer tortilla, as toasted, to towel, enclosing it, and repeat with remaining tortillas. Keep them warm in towel.
  • Quarter avocados lengthwise and remove pit, then peel. Cut each section into thin slices (lengthwise or crosswise, it doesn't matter) and season with salt.
  • Assemble tacos by spooning some purslane into a folded taco and topping it with avocado slices, cotija cheese, cilantro sprigs, and pico de gallo. Serve with lime wedges.

For Pico de Gallo:
1 pint grape tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1 tablespoon lime juice, or to taste
2 teaspoons minced fresh Serrano chile, or to taste
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
For Tacos:
2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb purslane, including tender upper stems, chopped (about 6 cups)
8 fresh corn tortillas
2 avocados
1/2 cup crumbled cotija cheese (about 3 ounces), or to taste
cilantro sprigs and lime wedges for serving
