步骤

Mix the avocado crema

Add all listed ingredients (except water) to a food processor. Season with ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ground black pepper. Pulse to break up the avocado and cilantro, then blend until smooth and creamy. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach your desired consistency. Set aside or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Char the sweet corn:

Place the sweet corn directly over a gas burner, then light to a medium-high flame. Cook 2 minutes per side or until charred as desired. Transfer to a cutting board and carefully slice the kernels off the cob. (No gas stove? Use an outdoor grill, grill pan, or broil the corn in the oven.)

Sauté the aromatics

Meanwhile, as the corn chars, heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and fragrant, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika, stirring to coat. Cook 1-2 minutes, until very fragrant.

Make the black bean filling

Stir in the black beans and cook 1-2 minutes until warm. Add vegetable broth/water and bring to a gentle simmer. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, mash some of the black beans to create a creamy, cohesive texture. If needed, cook another 1-2 minutes to thicken slightly. Squeeze in lime juice and season with additional salt and black pepper as desired. Remove from heat.

Assemble black bean tostadas:

If desired, warm tostada shells according to package directions. Spread black bean topping over each tostada shell. Top with charred corn, a drizzle of avocado crema, and any other toppings you love–chopped cilantro, cotija cheese, shredded lettuce, etc. Enjoy!
