Hello, community food lovers greetings This post is made for the qurator@qurator hive chef contest. As an Indian, I used to make lots of spicy food which is close to Mexican taste so never made those things before. I have seen many Norwegians mad at that. Here in the summertime, it was lots of sales for that Mexican-ready food. Like tortillas, tacos, sauces, salsa, beans, spices.
I used to eat corn chips with salsa but never tried the way used to be prepared or eaten.
So here I made my fusion of making Mexican food.And sharing this tutorial here:
