Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated panela cheese with the drained nopalitos and the flour. Stir to combine and add the eggs. Season with salt and pepper and stir to make a thick batter.
Step 2
Add 2 tbsp of cooking oil to a frying pan and scoop the egg batter to make eight 6-8-inch pancakes. Flip each pancake once and set aside.
Step 3
Heat the green Mexican salsa in a saucepan and serve the tortita pancakes topped with a few tablespoons of green salsa.
Notes:
- Use red Mexican salsa for a different version.
- Add other veggies to the batter, such as corn or green beans, for a colorful take on the classic.
