- Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 qt of salted water to a boil. Add in potatoes, and simmer till tender, about 10 min. Drain, and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, combine chorizo and onion. Cook, stirring often, till sausage is cooked through and onion is soft, about 10 min. If sausage has rendered more than a light coating of fat over bottom of skillet, pour off extra.
- Add in potatoes, and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring often, till potatoes begin to brown, about 8 min. As mix cooks, mash everything together a little with back of a spoon or possibly a spatula, scraping up any crusty bits of potato, so which it roughly holds together. Cover, and keep hot over very low heat.
- Meanwhile, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeno. Pulse till fine. Add in avocado, and pulse till combined. Season with salt.
- Hot the tortillas as instructed below. Top each with potato mix and avocado salsa, mix in half, and serve.
- This recipe yields 12 tacos.
- Comments: The secret to an authentic-tasting taco is the tortilla, the unleavened Mexican cornmeal bread which serves as its base. To get fresh-baked flavor from store-bought tortillas, chef Rick Bayless wraps them in a clean, damp kitchen towel and warms them for four min in a covered microwave-safe casserole dish. Then he lets them stand a few min before adding the potato-and-chorizo filling and avocado salsa.
