Picadillo Tostada

Step 1: Boil the potatoes

Picadillo

  • Potatoes, diced
    350 g3/4 lb
  • Salt
    to taste

Dice the potatoes into fairly small pieces by cutting them into planks, then strips, and finally cutting those across into cubes.

Toss the diced potatoes into a pot, set them on a stove over high heat, and cover them with water. Lastly, add a generous sprinkle of salt.

Once the potatoes are cooked through and tender, strain them. They should be done in about 10-15 minutes, but you can test them with a knife, which should poke through with little resistance.
