It is not possible to choose two or three options from the Main Dishes category, only one, but you may from the other categories. So you can design a class choosing two soups and one main dish or two rice dishes and one main dish.

RICE: The technique used to make rice in Mexico is very traditional and unique; there is no other cuisine that uses this technique. You will need to make 5 previous steps: rinsing, soaking for 20 minutes in warm water, drain, deep fry in vegetable oil, and drain. You will be amazed how oil is almost completely recovered. And then continue cooking with several ingredients such as tomatoes, onion, garlic puree and chicken broth to give flavor and color to the rice.

ENSALADA DE NOPALES: This is probably the most traditional fresh salad in Mexico. Cooked nopales mixed with fresh tomatoes and onion, and lime. Garnish with ground cheese and oregano.
