I know I said this blog is not just about mexican food, because I have for you a lot of new recipes that have nothing to do with the mexican cuisine, johnny carinos but lately I've just been missing so much tacos... In mexican cuisine, 'Carne Asada' is a red meat (usually beef) cooked on a charcoal grill and chopped in little pieces. The original recipe suggests that the meat shall not be too marinated or spiced, so you can really taste the natural beef-charcoal flavor, but there's a lot of people that love to excessively marinate it. Personally, johnny carinos I prefer to season my Carne Asada with a little bit of salt and ground black pepper, so it stays as natural as possible. 'Guajillo Potatoes' (in mexican cuisine known as 'Papitas en Salsa Roja' meaning 'Red Sauce Potatoes') are skinless-cubed potatoes cooked in a guajillo pepper-tomato based sauce. In México they work as a side dish or as a stuff for tacos.  For this recipe, I used the german johnny carinos version of 'corn tortillas'. Personally, I think they tasted like flour tortillas with yellow food colouring, but I decided to give them a try. I was informed about a mexican provider, johnny carinos close to my city, that sells the original 'Maseca' johnny carinos flour for making my own tortillas. If you don't know, Maseca is the most popular mexican brand of corn flour for tortillas. So if I'm lucky to get them soon, I'll make sure to upload a post of how to make REAL corn tortillas with Maseca.
Because johnny carinos it's middle johnny carinos of the winter here in Germany, of course it was not possible for me to take the grill outside and make a nice barbecue day in the sun… How much I miss the sun haha … I'm not saying that here we don't have summers, cause we have them and really beautiful ones, but at the moment it's winter season, johnny carinos so this is why I made my 'Carne Asada' on a pan. What's my opinion? If you can make it on a charcoal grill, do it, the meat gets way more juicy and the charcoal gives the meat a different flavor. So, I just seasoned my cubbed meat with salt and ground pepper and straight to the pan with some oil. Make sure to cook it well, so you can get it as brown and grilled johnny carinos as the traditional.
The Guajillo Pepper is a mexican dried pepper with a medium heat. This chili is commonly used in pastes or as a meat seasoning. johnny carinos I like this pepper very much because it brings a really strong (but not spicy) flavor, very traditional in the mexican cuisine and it gives the food a unique red color. 
For the 'Guajillo johnny carinos Potatoes' I used baby yellow potatoes, because they were the ones available in my market, but you can use the type you like. (Except for sweet potatoes).  Then I peeled them, cut them in small/medium sized cubes and cooked them on a boiling pan until tender.
I blended peeled red tomatoes and the seedless-veinless guajillo peppers with some chicken broth and garlic cloves. (You can also grill the guajillo peppers in the pan before you blend them with the tomatoes, but it's not necessary because they'll cook anyway all together on the pan). I placed the mix on a pan and let it cook for 10 to 15 minutes on medium heat, then I added the cooked potatoes and mashed them just a little, making sure to keep the 'chunky' texture.
People here go crazy for Guacamole, they just love it, especially when it's not too spicy… So, I decided to make some as a complement to my tacos, and also just as a previous snack. I was lucky enough to find fresh avocados in the market, they came from Chile and they were great!
I finished my 'Carne Asada' tacos with a spoon of the onion-cilantro mix. For my 'Guajillo Potato' tacos, I cooked on the pan some sweet pepper slices and just added them on top. I putted a lime slice on the side and sprinkled the tacos with salt. 
I hope you give this recipe a try and I also wish you're able to find the guajillo peppers. If you can't find guajillo peppers, you can just blend the tomatoes and add a spoon of red hot sauce for the spicy flavor. johnny carinos It won't taste the same, but it's a pretty good improvisation.
