Sweet Potato Chilaquiles with Griddled Salsa Roja

This vibrant vegetarian dish offers a sophisticated take on a Mexican breakfast classic. Our sweet potato chilaquiles feature layers of crisp corn tortillas, earthy sweet potato and mild poblano chillies, all smothered in a zesty tomatillo sauce and rich soured cream. The addition of tangy pickled onions provides a bright contrast to the savoury, melted Monterey Jack cheese, creating a multi-dimensional flavour profile that works just as well for a hearty brunch as it does for a midweek supper.

Deeply comforting and naturally filling, this homemade bake is an excellent way to introduce authentic Mexican flavours to your kitchen. Pairing the soft, slow-cooked vegetables with the smoky depth of a griddled tomato-chipotle salsa ensures a professional finish. It is a wonderful vegetarian main course that is easily shared, making it a perfect choice for casual entertaining or a nourishing family meal packed with wholesome ingredients.

Ingredients for Sweet Potato Chilaquiles with Griddled Salsa Roja

  • 2 small onions

  • 60ml red wine vinegar or fruit vinegar

  • 350ml soured cream

  • 120ml di latte intero

  • Olio vegetale per friggere

  • 12 Corn Tortillas

  • 350ml vegetable stock, homemade or store-bought

  • 8 tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and quartered

  • 2 jalapeño chillies, seeded and chopped

  • 1 garlic clove, chooped

  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves

  • Sale a piacere

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening or vegetable oil

  • 1 sweet potato (about 350g ), peeled and finely diced

  • 60g grated Monterey Jack cheese

  • 2 poblano chillies, roasted, peeled, seeded, and diced

  • 240ml Griddled Tomato-Chipotle Salsa

Slice one onion into very thin strips. Combine with the vinegar in a bowl and set aside. Chop the other onion coarsely and set aside. In a mixing bowl, whisk the soured cream and milk together.

In a large skillet, pour enough vegetable oil to come 1/4 inch up the sides. Heat the oil over medium heat until lightly smoking. Fry the tortillas, 1 or 2 at a time (or as many as will fit in the pan), just until crisp, about 1 minute. (You may need to add a little more oil for the last few tortillas.) Drain on paper towels.

Place the stock in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the tomatillos and cook until tender, about 6 minutes; drain, reserving the stock. Place the tomatillos, jalapeños, chopped onion, garlic, and coriander in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Season with salt.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the vegetable shortening until lightly smoking. Pour in the tomatillo mixture and stir constantly for about 5 minutes, until thick and dark. Add the reserved stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes; the sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 177°C.

Add the sweet potato to a saucepan of boiling salted water and blanch for 3 minutes, or until tender. Drain and refresh in ice water to stop the cooking process.

Line an 8-inch square baking pan with 3 tortillas; they will overlap slightly. Pour one quarter of the tomatillo sauce on top, and pour one quarter of the soured cream-milk mixture on top of the sauce. Top with one quarter of the cheese, and place a third of the poblanos and sweet potatoes over the cheese. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas, sauce, soured cream mixture, and cheese: the top layer will not have poblanos or sweet potato.

Cover the baking pan with foil and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove and top with the drained marinated onions. Serve with the salsa.
