(Ensalada de Col y Queso con Migas)
Category: Vegetable Salads
Bits of fried tortillas, called migas, and grated cheese appear in this unique cabbage salad that I created for a cooking class--and it was a huge success. Oaxaca cheese is now available in many supermarkets or Mexican markets. If you can't find it, substitute mozzarella.
Vegetable oil for frying
3 (6- to 7-inch) corn tortillas, cut into 1/2-inch squares
1/2 head large cabbage, finely shredded
1 cup coarsely shredded Oaxaca or Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup lightly packed chopped fresh cilantro
1 large ripe tomato, chopped
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 jarred pickled jalapeño pepper (en escabeche), seeded, veins removed, and finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
1. In a small skillet pour oil to a depth of about 1/2 inch and heat over medium heat until it shimmers. Fry the tortilla squares in batches until crisp and golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
2. Put all of the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Add the fried tortillas and toss everything together. Serve at once.
