Close-up of assorted Mexican tacos with fresh vegetables, herbs, and vibrant garnishes on a wooden table.

Method

  1. Start by prepping your corn tortillas, lime, cilantro so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the leeks and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Add the elote and let it blistered, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
  4. Fold in the olive oil and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
  5. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
  6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a spoonful of yogurt and a final crack of pepper.
  7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
