Doce (Twelve) Mexican Recipes of Christmas

Let’s face it, there’s already enough to organise around Christmas time… that’s why we’ve compiled our favourite (and most popular) recipes to help complete your Festive Fiesta!

1. GUACAMOLE

Our simple guacamole recipe, just how Abuela would make it. Perfect for scooping, topping or smothering – a true crowd pleaser!

2. DEVIL PRAWN TACOS

The devil coming from how devilishly delicious (and spicy) they are. If you’re looking for Christmas with a kick – this is the recipe for you.

3. DESHEBRADA RANCHERA

A versatile shredded beef recipe that’s perfect for all guests whether they’re a taco builder, tostada maker or simply like to enjoy con arroz (with rice) – there’s nothing this beef can’t do.

 4. KINGFISH & MANGO CEVICHE

A winner for those that like something fresh, sweet & tangy. In this recipe we step away from the fire & leave the cooking to the limes.

5. FISH TACO

This recipe is Ensenada style (aka crispy) and up for personalising with your favourite toppings & sauces. Create a taco de pescado that is uniquely yours!

6. SALSA VERDE

Made festively green with tomatillos, jalapeños & coriander, this salsa adds a zingy kick to everything from tacos & chilaquiles to Christmas stews.

7. MUSHROOM CEVICHE

Mushroom ceviche is a great alternative to traditional seafood ceviche without compromising on flavour, texture or freshness. Better still, it only takes ten minutes to make, which means more time for margaritas!

8. MEXICAN LASAGNE

Or Pastel Azteca if you’re feeling fancy! In this recipe, pasta sheets are replaced with corn tortillas & the fillings can be switched up to suit vegos, pescatarians or meat lovers.

9. CHICKEN TINGA TACOS

Even though we’ve wrapped this tasty chicken recipe up in a corn tortilla, this filling is also perfect for enchiladas & flautas too! Handy Hint: make the day before you’re using it for an added boost to the flavour.

10. CHIPOTLE CAULIFLOWER TACOS

The MVP of our veggie taco recipes thanks to its’ combination of moreish crunch, citrus zing & smokey flavour.

11. PICO DE GALLO

Bursting with juicy tomatoes, crisp onions & a cheeky lime kick, it’s the perfect addition to the three t’s (tacos, tostadas & totopos)… just choose your adventure!

12. CHICHARRON CON VALENTINA

A simple snack hack that elevates crispy pork skin (or even a pack of our totopos) with a spicy kick. Work smarter not harder this Christmas Fiesta.
