What are some more? Ive been to Mexico 13 times(im 12)and want to know more about the food thereWhat are some really good Mexican recipes?
You're talking about "ceviche". You should try making your own huevos rancheros. They're pretty simple, but they're delicious. Plus, you can eat them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!



P.S. - The recipe for Aceitunas Rellenas above is not Mexican. It's a Spanish dish.What are some really good Mexican recipes?
Title: ACEITUNAS RELLENAS - STUFFED OLIVES

Categories: Appetizers, Mexican

Yield: 6 servings



7 1/2 oz Can Pitted Olives

3/4 oz Can Anchovy Fillets, Cut In

- Small Pieces

1 Can Chopped Pimentos

1 Clove Garlic, Mashed Or

- Pressed

1/3 c Wine Vinegar

1 tb Olive Oil

Oil From Anchovies

1/4 c Minced Parsley



Drain olives and stuff with the anchovy fillets. Combine the other ingredients, except parsley; pour over the olives and marinate over-night. Mix in parsley half an hour before serving. If the idea of stuffing the olives throws you, don't do it. Simply add the anchovies to the marinade and pour over the olives. These will keep for a week or more if parsley is added just before serving.

MEXICAN HAMBURGERS (CHULETAS)



Salsa Fria:



1 10 oz can diced tomatoes with green chiles

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon wine vinegar





Chuletas:



2 cups Saltines, finely crushed

3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 cup Vidalia onions, chopped

1/2 tsp garlic powder (not salt)

1 lb ground chuck (beef)

1 egg

1 tsp salt

1 tsp chili powder

1 cup oil (for frying)



Garnish:



Rings of red onion, slices of avocado, sour cream and sprigs of cilantro





Combine all Salsa Fria ingredients. Refrigerate for at least one hour.

On a sheet of wax paper, evenly spread cracker crumbs. Combine parsley, onions, ground meat, garlic powder, egg, chili powder and salt in a small bowl. Form 4 patties and coat each pattie with the cracker crumbs evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (but no more than 3 hours) to thoroughly chill.



Heat oil until it is hot enough to brown a 1 inch cube of bread in a little over 1 minute. (Don't get oil too hot or center of patties won't cook through). Fry patties in oil well browned on outside and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.



Serve on a bed of iceberg lettuce with a few rings of red onion, topped with Salsa Fria and with a dollop of sour cream with a sprig of cilantro to the side and a slice of avocado.What are some really good Mexican recipes?
