Posted by Ekone on Apr 26th 2024
Greater than the sum of its parts, this simple tostada hits all the marks: bright, fresh, zesty, crunchy, creamy, and with an irresistible kick of heat from our Habanero Hot Oysters.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
- 1 medium fennel bulb, thinly sliced
- Zest of 1 lime, plus 2 teaspoons lime juice
- A glug of olive oil, plus more for frying the tortillas
- Fine sea salt to season
- 1 tablespoon roughly chopped cilantro, plus a few leaves for garnish
- 2 corn tortillas
- 2 heaping tablespoons sour cream or thick coconut yogurt
- 1 tin Ekone Habanero Oysters
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the fennel, lime zest and juice, olive oil and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine.
- Add the cilantro and toss to combine. Taste a piece of fennel for seasoning, it should taste bright and savory. Adjust with another squeeze of lime or pinch of salt if needed.
- Set a small frying pan over medium heat. Add a small glug of olive oil in the pan and rub the tortilla in the oil till it’s fully saturated on both sides. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden and fully crispy. Repeat with the other tortilla.
- Set the tortillas aside for a couple minutes to cool to prevent the sour cream or coconut yogurt from melting on contact.
- Spread one tablespoon of sour cream or coconut yogurt on each crispy tortilla.
- Top with a generous pile of fennel slaw, evenly distribute the oysters, and finish with a few sprigs of cilantro.
