I super appreciate when he adds an ingredient, acknowledges that is not traditional, and explains why he using it.

[@PVolkovX]

As a Mexican who has lived abroad, I understand how hard (and expensive) finding the ingredients for Authentic Mexican dishes can be. So IMO Frankie really hits the nail with his interpretations because they keep the spirit of the dishes: the casualness of carne asada and street corn, how everyone makes chilaquiles differently and the weird mixture of ingredients that creates a delicious mole. I’ve learned a lot about cooking with Struggle Meals and really love this show! Protip: my grandma always says that the best chilaquiles are those fried with some extra butter. ;)

The thing about what's traditional/authentic, or what we call traditional and authentic, varies from house hold to household, and family to family. I'm a New Mexico native and the recipes that are traditional to my family are not necessarily what a typical "mexican" meal from Mexico would have. Traditional ingredients just come from what your family tradition is. So just go for it! If you find a recipe that you and your family enjoy and you find it best cooked that way, I would call that traditional! Great video

[@dulceespinoza-valdez4327]

I love chilaquiles! here is my own simple chilaquile recipe from a busy and broke college student: 3 tortillas sliced into triangles 1 tomato diced 1/2 onion diced 1-2 jalapeno peppers 4 eggs •fry the veggies together until they soften • remove veggies and fry the tortilla triangles until hard • remove tortillas and fry eggs •add in the veggies and tortillas in the pan with the eggs, salt and cook a little bit more

[@silentcreature136]

PRO TIP! coat both sides of the tortilla in oil before you cut them into pieces. They'll end up perfectly coated, and will take less oil if done quickly. Edit: another piece of info: Onion don't really irritate your eyes, they actually irritate your nose, which causes your eyes to water profusely. I get around this by temporarily becoming a mouth breather while working with them.

A culinary school student once told me the same thing, to always breathe through my mouth when cutting onions.

in the north part of mexico we have a different way of eating chilaquiles, we call it "migas" (meegus) con huevos, pieces with eggs. we rip the tortillas, we cut some onion and put oil in a pan and add the onions then we put the rip tortillas and we dont let the tortillas be hard but we make sure they are getting the flavor of the oil and the onions, we add the eggs and salt.re is all cimbined. after you put it in a plate with fried beans you add salsa. that is usually for people who dont have alot of money but it is good. also when we didnt have enough for eggs we ate tortillas with mayo and salt.

You're adorable and I really enjoy all your segments, but Struggle Meals is my favorite so far! I do have one question about the sweet corn. We have several authentic Mexican restaurants that serve it and it looks so good, but I can't eat mayonnaise (I also find in revolting.. ) I have been afraid to ask if they could make one without the mayo...well not AFRAID exactly, I'm just... "Terminally Polite" as a former boss once told me. 1) Do you think I would offend them to ask? and 2) if I were to make it at home, do you think sour cream or plain Greek yogurt would be a good substitute? Or could I just butter the silks right out of it and then put the cheese on it? Just curious what your thoughts are. Thanks for all the great tips and for being seriously adorable! 😊

[@breeSK33T]

i honestly just slather it in butter. mayo is definitely not the end all be all of the elote. i'm from south texas and grew up eating it with butter, tajin or trechas (or any chili powder) , and grated parmesan (the one in the bottle thing). if it's available then we use fresh cotija or queso fresco. it wasn't until i got older that i realized people used mayo - i never have nor do know anyone around me that has. if you wanna do a quick and cheap way, get a bag of frozen corn and fry them up in butter on a skillet until they start browning. put it in a bowl and add in more butter if you want, your choice of chili powder (i recommend tajin), and then add in your choice of cheese. that's how i had it growing up! if you want to go the more fancy route, just roast the corn as frankie did in the video then assemble as you wish!

[@Nyctophora]

Never change, Frankie.

[@kiana6043]
