WALNUT PICADILLO



Walnut Picadillo image

Picadillo is a dish that spans Latin American and Filipino food cultures with ingredients that vary from country to region. It's a simple dish that highlights ground meat with bold flavors from tomato, onion, garlic, olives and capers, and is often paired with starches like potatoes and rice for a filling main dish, or even a taco filling. In this plant-based version, ground walnuts take on a meaty texture that absorbs all the bold flavors of a picadillo. Using a food processor is the best - and fastest - way to make sure the walnuts are evenly minced.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings (about 5 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 cups/9 ounces raw walnuts, minced in food processor until finely chopped
½ cup tomato sauce
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon liquid aminos, soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon raw turbinado or brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 ½ to 2 teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1/3 cup neutral cooking oil (such as grapeseed)
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 medium serrano chile, seeded and minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cut into ⅓-inch dice
¼ cup light beer (optional), such as a Mexican lager
1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes, strained
¼ cup chopped pitted green olives
1 tablespoon capers
Cooked rice and tortillas, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the walnuts to a medium bowl with the tomato sauce, tomato paste, liquid aminos, vinegar, paprika, sugar, cumin and salt. Mix until fully combined; set aside.
  • Add the oil to a large skillet and heat over medium. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent and the peppers are soft.
  • Add the serrano chile and garlic and cook until fragrant, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the potatoes soften slightly, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the walnut mixture and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture lightly browns.
  • Add the beer (if using), tomatoes, olives and capers, and allow to simmer for at least 15 minutes to let the ingredients meld together, stirring frequently.
  • Serve over rice with corn tortillas.
