MOLLETES II ( MEXICAN BEANS ON TOAST)



Molletes II ( Mexican Beans on Toast) image

If you're lucky enough to have a Mexican bakery nearby, use *bolillos or *teleras to prepare the molettes. (*Oval shaped bolillos and round teleras are basically the Mexican version of French bread.) We ate molletes all the time as kids but on Weber's white bread instead! ;) If pressed for time, use canned beans, however you are in for a real culinary treat if you use homemade refried beans and salsa. *Update 9 Sept 2010: I tried this bolillo recipe and it worked out really well!: Recipe #12298

Provided by COOKGIRl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -5 bolillos bread or 6 slices French bread, DAY OLD
butter or extra virgin olive oil, for spreading
1 1/2 cups refried beans, definitely homemade
1 cup Mexican blend cheese, such as queso blanco, queso fresco (can substitute sharp white cheddar) or 1 cup panela cheese (can substitute sharp white cheddar)
shredded lettuce (to garnish, crunchy lettuce such as romaine or iceberg) (optional)
1 cup salsa, homemade if possible
1 cup guacamole, homemade is preferable

Steps:

  • Cut the bolillos in half lengthwise and then cut a small slice off the bottom of bread so that each piece lies flat. If using French bread, cut into 3/4" slices.
  • Spread each slice of bread lightly with butter or olive oil, or a combination of.
  • Arrange the bread slices on a cookie sheet and broil for about 3-4 minutes until crispy and golden.
  • Divide warmed refried beans onto the rolls, sprinkle with cheese on top. Broil again but only until the cheese starts to melt, perhaps another minute or two at most.
  • Remove molettes from oven and garnish with lettuce, if desired. Next top with salsa and guacamole.

GRILLED BEAN AND CHEESE HEROS



Grilled Bean and Cheese Heros image

It takes three ingredients, plus any extra topping that you fancy, 8 minutes in the toaster or oven and you get one of the most comforting foods I have eaten since I can remember: Molletes.

Provided by Pati Jinich

Categories     Antojos

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 teleras (bolillos, petite baguettes or large baguettes cut into 6" portions)
2 cups refried beans (homemade or store bought)
2 cups Oaxaca cheese (mozzarella or Monterrey jack, grated (any melting cheese of your liking will do))
Serve with pico de gallo salsa or another salsa of your choice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Slice the bread in half lengthwise to have 8 pieces. Spread each piece with 3 to 4 tablespoons of refried beans and add 3 to 4 tablespoons of grated cheese on top. Arrange Molletes on a baking sheet as you make them. If you want, add additional toppings like ham, turkey, bacon or chorizo. Sprinkle them on top of the cheese. When they are all assembled, place the baking sheet into the oven.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the bread has a nice toasted crust around the edges. Serve with Pico de Gallo salsa, or a salsa of your choice, on the side or on top.

  • If you want to make the bean puree, start by roughly chopping 1/2 an onion and peel 2 garlic cloves. Saute the onion and garlic in a dollop of oil over medium heat for 5-7 minutes. Drain and rinse one can of black beans. Add the black beans to the onion mixture along with 2 chipotles in adobo, 1 Tablespoon adobo sauce, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, freshly ground pepper, and 1/2 cup water (or stock). Simmer for a few minutes until heated through. Combine the bean mixture in a blender or food processor. Salt to taste.
