Smoky Mexican Molletes Recipe [Video]

For this recipe you will need bolillo rolls and shredded cheese as well as everything to make refried beans and salsa fresca. The refried beans are made with pinto beans, onion, garlic, chipotles in adobo, vegetable broth, cumin, and oregano. For the salsa fresca you will use roma tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime, and a bit of salt.

Saute the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes, until softened and fragrant.

Simmer and gently mash the beans for 7-10 minutes, until they have reached the desired consistency. Add more broth or water if they dry out too much.

Slice the bolillo rolls in half and place them cut-side up under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, until lightly toasted.
