Cabrito

It is roasted young lamb or, more traditionally, roast kid. You need to prepare some traditional ingredients to make this meal. However, the way of creating this meal is not that challenging. Firstly, place goats in a large pot. Cover with water and season with salt and vinegar. Allow soaking for at least 2 hours. Outside, pile a bunch of mesquite wood and burn to make white coals. Place the babies in a water bath and then put them on the grill.

After that, place the goats/tortillas on the coals and roast for 2 to 3 hours. After grilling, rinse them with saltwater. It would be better to turn the skewers over and over again. To serve, cut the meat into small pieces and place it on plates. Besides, you can garnish with guacamole and onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and chiles. If desired, melt the cheese under the grill.

Texas Goat Sauce

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Once the oil has melted, add the garlic and onion. Sauté until soft. Combine the mustard and ketchup in a large bowl. Then, you will need to add to the pot and stir. Combine all ingredients and stir. Simmer for 60 minutes and serve. Besides, the leftover sauce can be stored for up to 30 days.

Grilled Cilantro Chipotle

You can purchase some essential oils, such as cilantro or chili oils, and soak the herbs for several days before using them. Garnish with fresh mint leaves or cilantro. After that, blend the first five ingredients until smooth. Place the chops in a large baking dish. Brush the chops evenly with the oil mixture from step 1. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning occasionally.

Besides, it would be better to soak the chops in water for 30 minutes. Remove marinade from chops; discard marinade. Sprinkle chops evenly with salt and pepper. Then, light a fire in the outdoor grill with charcoal and wood chips. Light and allow to burn until all coals burn evenly. Place the chops on a rack and place them on the grill. Grill for 6-8 minutes or until desired doneness. Finally, you can drizzle with chipotle oil and cilantro oil.

Mexican Easter Cheese

It is the traditional Mexican way of making Easter cheese. There are many ethnic versions of Easter cheese. Compared to the Polish version, it contains nutmeg. As for the types of cheese, all versions of this cheese are good and take little time to prepare. Firstly, you need to beat eggs until pale yellow and smooth. Beat the beaten eggs in a double boiler. Add the milk, sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg. After that, cook over medium heat for 30 minutes. To avoid burning, stir the bottom and sides of the pan with a skimmer.

Once the eggs look scrambled, transfer the mixture to a strainer lined with cheesecloth. Bring the ends of the cheesecloth together and roll into a ball. The cheesecloth should be tied at the top of the ball. After a drip time of about 3 hours, tie the ends of the cheesecloth onto a spigot or hook. Remove the cloth, but leave the cloth on the ball. Wrap the cloth in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. When you are ready to serve the ball, cut it into small pieces and store it for up to a week.
