Tostadas with Creamy Roasted Poblanos and Corn

These smoky poblano and corn tostadas offer a vibrant taste of Mexican home cooking. This vegetarian dish centres on 'rajas'—strips of roasted poblano chillies—which are tossed with charred sweetcorn and a touch of soured cream for a rich, savoury finish. The contrast between the crunchy tortilla base and the velvety, mildly spicy topping makes for a truly satisfying texture that captures the spirit of traditional street food.

Ideal for a relaxed weekend lunch or a fresh midweek dinner, these tostadas are incredibly versatile. You can prepare the creamy vegetable topping up to a day in advance, making assembly a breeze when you are ready to eat. Serve them piled high with crisp lettuce, salty cheese, and plenty of fresh coriander for a wholesome meal the whole family will enjoy.

Ingredients for Tostadas with Creamy Roasted Poblanos and Corn

  • 10 poblano chillies

  • 2 spighe di mais, sbucciate

  • 2 cucchiai di olio vegetale

  • 1 large white onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 cucchiaino di sale kosher, più altro a piacere

  • 60ml crema (Mexican salted cream) or soured cream

  • 16 small corn tortillas or store-bought crispy tostada shells

  • Olio vegetale (per friggere

  • if needed)

  • Kosher salt (if needed)

  • 350ml Creamy Black Bean Spread (optional)

  • Shredded iceberg lettuce, thinly sliced white onion, queso fresco, coriander leaves with tender stems (for serving)

  • A candy or deep-fry thermometer

Preheat grill. Arrange chillies in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Grill, turning once, until blackened in spots, about 15 minutes. Transfer chillies to a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 15 minutes. Peel, seed, devein, and thinly slice chillies lengthwise.

Meanwhile, prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until kernels are tender and charred in spots, 15–20 minutes. Let cool, then cut kernels off cob.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden and tender, 10–12 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add chillies, corn, and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Stir in crema and just heat through (do not bring to boil)-vegetables should be just coated; add more crema if needed. Season with salt.

If frying tortillas, fit a large skillet with candy or deep-fry thermometer; pour in oil to measure 1". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 191°C. Fry tortillas in batches until crispy, turning every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Drain on paper towel-lined baking sheets and season with salt.

Spread 1 tablespoon Creamy Black Bean Spread, if using, on a tostada shell. Top with 1/4 cup rajas, then lettuce, onion, queso fresco, and coriander. Repeat with remaining tostada shells. Serve at room temperature.

Rajas can be chilled for up to 1 day. Reheat and let cool to room temperature before serving.
