OR, come by my house any morning because I love breakfast and I serve tell you can't move.

Ask others who have sampled my food.

problem with consuming illegal Mexican Food is all the carbon emissions one gives off later! :dong:

I recall my Navy days and a port call(summer, 1964) to Kobe, Japan. While standing Shore Patrol, there, chow time came and we entered a hotel's dining room...they had some great Mex food and I returned a couple times before we stood out to sea, again.

Thank You - Did the Hotel just serve foreigners or Japanese also?

A PM from an e-buddy in Turkey says it is readily available and enjoyed there.

The joke is, There Is No Mexican Food, as we visualize it.

As with Chinese Food, these standard dishes have been a synthesis of the American cuisine. Or so says my favorite, Mexican, Mexican cook. Great Tacos with lard fried tortillas. The beans are the only Mexy beans I ever likes, again - it's the lard. One thing for sure, if they don't use Lard, it isn't Mexican. The cuisine around Mexico is quite varied by region.

Chilli Rellenos stuffed with meat or chicken instead of cheese is a fav if fresh chilis are used.

Menudo, ah, YUM ! When the tripe melts in your mouth and isn't pencil eraser tough.

One thing that I had never developed a taste for is for refried beans. To me it seems like those are the ones that give me gas. I think because they put milk into them too and I am lactose intolerant. I had always eaten them whole as a kid and still do. When I'm at a Mexican restaurant I have learned to ask for "frijoles enteros". Generally I don't eat at Mexican restaurants since it seems to me that they charge out the wazoo for a little cheap food. What does it cost to put a few pinto beans, a bone, a spoon of oil along with a little salt and spice in the pressure cooker? The places where I live at are just totally expensive but then so are most of the other places here so I don't eat out. I hope the situation in Europe is better than here. And I still do want to someday in my life go to a pub in Gibraltar (part of the UK) and have a proper English breakfast. And then the Scottish breakfast the day after. And then go up the hill and watch the Barbary apes (Macaques), look out the scope over to Spain and Morocco, then go back down and hit the beach.

Refried Beans are not made with milk.

Take 3 or so lbs of pinto beans in a crock pot, add a pepper or two and an onion fill to 4 times with water and slow cook all night.

Remove the peppers and onion, drain off most of the water. put beans in a pot and mash them or use a blender, beater and make them smooth. Then put them in a big skillet with melted lard, Yes Lard (pig fat) and fry your beans, add salt and pepper garlic, etc.

At this point they are done and can be eaten but most of the time you will put them in the frig, until ready to eat.

Put the amount you need in a frying pan with a little bit of lard and cook them again, This is called REFRIED BEANS. add them with just about anything else and you have a meal, I like them with shredded beef which is also cooked in that same crock pot.

And it must be lard to really have a good flavor.

Veggie oils just do not do it. Tastes bad, too.

If you are going to do Mexy food,

You have to accept lard to really enjoy the experience.

Si ?
