CARNE ASADA TORTA
My memories of Mexican carne asada tortas are tied to the ham tortas that El Chavo del Ocho made famous through out the world. Before coming to California I never had the chance to try these delicious sandwiches. Today I will share with you my favorite torta recipe with grilled meat. It is served with tomato, lettuce, avocado, refried beans and mayonnaise, and then wrapped in a lightly toasted roll. To give it an authentic touch, don't forget to add thin slices of jalapeños. Enjoy and Viva Mexico!

CARNITAS TORTA
Steps:
- For the carnitas: Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
- Place pork butt in a 4-inch-deep roasting pan and coat both sides generously with salt and oregano. Roast fat-side-up 8 hours or up to overnight.
- Chop meat and crispy fat or pull meat with tongs while hot. Pour juices (if you have any!) over pork and reserve for tortas, tacos, burritos or whatever you can imagine.
- For the torta: Lightly spread all four surfaces of torta roll with butter-olive oil spread. Toast all sides on the griddle or in a pan.
- Spread Baja sauce on both halves of the torta. Top with carnitas, queso fresco, jalapeños, avocado, pico de gallo and mixed greens. Cut in half and serve with cabbage and lime salad.
- Combine butter and olive oil until blended.
- Combine mayonnaise, lime juice and salt.
- Mix the onions, tomatoes, cilantro, lime juice and salt well in a bowl and chill.
- Mix cabbage, carrots, cilantro and jalapeños in a bowl. Squeeze key lime over salad and add salt, then toss.
CARNE ASADA TORTA
I worked in a Taco shop and learned how to make this. It is a great change from the traditional carne asada burrito.

TORTA AHOGADA
Steps:
- Cut the baguette open (not all the way), then spread the Puerco Beans inside, and stuff it with the Smoked Carnitas. Cut it in half for better handling purposes, place it in a bowl, and top it with the Tomato Salsa. Garnish with the Pickled Red Onions. Serve with the Spicy Salsa and lime wedge.
- Cook the pinto beans in a pot with 1 gallon of water and the salt until tender, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Set aside.
- Preheat another pot for about 2 minutes and add the lard. Let it heat for another minute, then add the chorizo and bacon. Let cook 5 minutes, then add the onion and serrano pepper and let it cook for another 3 minutes, stirring the mixture occasionally. Add the beer to deglaze, then let it reduce for 5 minutes.
- Grab the cooked beans and add them to the mixture. Let it boil, then add the pickled jalapeños and vinegar and bring it to boil, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and check the seasoning.
- Dice the pork butt into 2-inch pieces. In a pot, heat up the lard to around 350 degrees F (about 5 minutes). Add the pork butt pieces and sear them for about 7 minutes. Squeeze the juice of the orange into the pot, then drop the orange into the pot. Add the garlic, bay leaves, oregano, cola and salt, then turn it down to medium-low heat. Cook until the meat is tender, about 40 minutes, then add the liquid smoke and let cook for 5 more minutes. Strain the carnitas and enjoy.
- Remove the seeds and veins from the guajillo peppers. Put the peppers in a small pot together with the tomatoes, garlic and 3 quarts water. Place the pot on the stove and boil them until the tomatoes are fully cooked, about 10 minutes.
- Strain the vegetables, retaining their water, then put them in a blender. Add some of the vegetable water, covering the vegetables halfway, then add the salt, oregano, cumin, pepper and vinegar. Blend together and check the seasoning.
- Cut the onions in juliennes, then put them in a mixing bowl. Cut the beet into chunks and add them to the bowl. Add the vinegar, oregano, salt, cumin, pepper and 3 ounces water. Cover and let them sit overnight; check the seasoning.
- Put the chile pods, garlic and 1 quart water in a pot and boil for 10 minutes. Strain the chile pods and garlic, reserving the water. Blend them with the vinegar, salt, cumin, oregano, pepper and 8 ounces of the cooking water. Pass the mixture through a strainer. It is ready to spice up your life.
CARNE ASADA CHEESE TACOS

Steps:
- In a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish, combine the butter, tequila, thyme, serrano, garlic and cilantro and mix well. Transfer steak to the marinade and sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
- Preheat a large griddle or skillet over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Cook the steak, turning occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest on a plate covered with aluminum foil for 10 minutes. Cut the meat against the grain into 1/2-inch pieces.
- On the same griddle used to cook the steak, over medium-high heat, place 3 (1/4 cup) mounds of cheese spaced 2 inches apart. Let cook for 3 minutes (the cheese will spread flat like a tortilla, make sure they don't stick together). After the cheese browns on the bottom (the cheese will stay white on the top side), add 1/4 cup sliced meat over half of the cheese and fold the other half over like a half moon-shaped quesadilla. Transfer to a baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. Repeat the procedure with the remaining ingredients.
- Serve each cheese taco with sliced avocado and salsa or hot sauce.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the cutlets with salt and pepper all over. Put the flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Put the breadcrumbs in a second plate and the beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the cutlets into the flour, then the eggs and finally into the breadcrumbs, pressing down on both sides so that the breadcrumbs adhere to the meat.
- Heat enough oil in a large skillet to come 1/3-inch up the sides of pan until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F. Working in two batches, pan-fry the cutlets until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to some paper towels to drain.
- To assemble the sandwiches, halve the rolls horizontally. Pull out the soft center of the bread slices and discard. Place the cutlets on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with mayonnaise if using, the lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion and jalapeno. Arrange the sandwiches on serving plates and garnish with lime wedges.
