Organizing a Mexican evening with friends is an excellent idea for sharing a convivial, gourmet moment. Whether you're a fan of tacos or fajitas, or simply want to enjoy a Mexican-flavored aperitif, here are a few tips for a perfectly successful meal. Find out how to turn your evening into a real fiesta with Nachos' recommendations!
The perfect Mexican aperitif
To get your Mexican evening off to a good start, the appetizer must be just right. Mexican chips, or tortilla chips, accompanied by fresh guacamole, are a must. Add a spicy salsa or melted cheddar sauce for even more flavor.
When it comes to drinks, there's nothing like a cold Mexican beer, such as Corona or Muerte, to accompany your appetizers. If you prefer softs, opt for a Jarritos, a fruity, sparkling and refreshing drink, very popular in Mexico.
And for those who want to add a little more ambiance, a Mexican cocktail is a must! Why not try a homemade Margarita? Here's a simple recipe to impress your guests:
Recipe for the Margarita, a tangy Tequila-based cocktail
In Mexico, tequila is at the heart of many cocktail recipes, including the Margarita. This cocktail is composed of three main ingredients, which give it its inimitable tangy flavor:
- 4 cl tequila
- 2.4 cl orange liqueur
- Fresh lime juice
- Ice cubes
- Salt for glass rim
Mix the tequila, orange liqueur and lime juice in a shaker with ice cubes. Shake well, then pour into a glass, the rim of which has been dipped in salt. Garnish with a lime slice and serve immediately.
Fajitas or tacos with friends?
When it's time for the main course, it's time to choose: fajitas or tacos? Both are delicious, but there are important differences between these two classics of Mexican cuisine.
Tacos
Tacos generally consist of a small corn or wheat tortilla, filled with meat (beef, chicken, pork), vegetables and sometimes cheese. They are often accompanied by a variety of sauces, such as salsa, hot sauce or sour cream. Tacos are perfect for a casual evening out, where everyone can create their own combination of flavors.
THE FAJITAS
Fajitas, on the other hand, are tortillas (often made of wheat) that you fill yourself at the table. The main ingredients include protein (often chicken or beef), rice, beans, peppers and sautéed onions, all served piping hot. Everyone can then add toppings such as cream, grated cheese or guacamole. Fajitas are perfect for an interactive, convivial atmosphere!
