Asada Torta

about Asada Torta!

Asada Torta is a popular Mexican sandwich that is commonly found in restaurants in the USA. The name "Asada Torta" comes from the use of carne asada (grilled beef), which is the main ingredient of the sandwich.

Here are some general steps to make Asada Torta:

1. Start by making the carne asada. You can use flank steak or skirt steak, season it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and grill it until it's nicely charred and cooked to your liking. Once it's done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

2. While the meat is resting, you can prepare the other ingredients. Slice some onions and avocados, and gather some shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and your favorite salsa or hot sauce.

3. Cut a bolillo or telera roll in half and spread some refried beans on one side and mayo or sour cream on the other side.

4. Layer the sliced carne asada on top of the beans, and then add the onions, avocado, lettuce, and tomatoes.

5. Drizzle some salsa or hot sauce over the top, and then put the other half of the roll on top of the sandwich.

6. Press lightly on the sandwich to compress it, and then slice it in half diagonally.

7. Serve the Asada Torta with some chips or a side of your choice.

There you have it! That's a basic recipe for Asada Torta. You can customize it to your liking by adding or omitting ingredients. Enjoy your meal!
