Ingredients
  • 107.8 g Corn tortillas, white corn, standard size
  • 70.8 g Large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 17.7 g Pumpkin seeds (pepitas), ground into paste
  • 154.1 g Tomato, vine-ripened, pureed for sauce
  • 38.5 ml Epazote (dried) and vegetable broth
Method
  1. 01Hard-boil the eggs for 9 minutes, peel, and chop into small cubes.
  2. 02In a dry skillet, toast the pumpkin seeds until they pop and release a nutty aroma. Grind them into a fine, oily paste in a mortar and pestle or blender, slowly adding a bit of warm water or broth until you achieve a thick, creamy consistency. Season with salt.
  3. 03Simmer the pureed tomato with a pinch of salt and a sprig of epazote for 10 minutes until thickened into a vibrant red salsa.
  4. 04Lightly warm the corn tortillas in a clean pan so they are pliable.
  5. 05Dip each tortilla into the warm pumpkin seed sauce, coating it thoroughly.
  6. 06Place a generous portion of the chopped hard-boiled eggs in the center of each dipped tortilla and roll them up like small enchiladas.
  7. 07Arrange the rolled tortillas on a plate, drizzle with the remaining pumpkin seed sauce, and top with a spoonful of the warm tomato salsa. Serve immediately while the sauce is warm and fragrant.
