Fish Tacos

Fish tacos. When I think tacos, the first thing I think isn’t “let’s put some fish in that.”  and when I see some fish I don’t think “let’s put that in a taco.”  But my cousin did think that and so we had fish tacos for lunch just the other day.   It was actually not too bad. I wouldn’t say that I’d eat it every week, but I wouldn’t mind eating it once in awhile.

Preparing it is pretty simple, you cook up your fish and put them on a flour or corn tortilla.  Then you add whatever you want to it.  I added shredded lettuce, sour cream, red cabbage with lime juice on it, and the fish taco sauce that my cousin made.  Here is the recipe for the sauce to put on your fish taco:

3 T mayo

⅛ t salt

½ t sugar

4 tomatillos

2 jalapeno peppers

2 cloves of garlic

⅓ c cilantro stems (but leaves are just as fine, honestly)

First you broil the tomatillos, peppers and garlic for 3 minutes on each side or until they are looking slightly charred.  Chop up your cilantro stems into tiny pieces, doesn’t matter too much how small.  Then you throw everything into a blender and blend it together and you have the fish taco sauce.  You can change the amount of garlic and jalapeno peppers as much as you like to taste.  The sauce that I put on my taco had no peppers at all in it and it tasted just fine.

That’s all I got for you for now, but you’ll probably be hearing from me again soon.  I hope that every single one of your days until then is full of good times, good people, and good food.
