Method

  1. 1 Roast pumpkin seeds in a dry pan for 4 minutes until puffed up, then grind them finely. Pumpkin seeds are the entirety of the white sauce in this dish, so they cannot be substituted with anything else.
  2. 2 Boil the eggs for 9 minutes, peel them, and then chop them finely to use as filling.
  3. 3 Boil 250 ml of water with epazote leaves for 5 minutes, then strain to extract the fragrant liquid and gradually mix it into the pumpkin seed powder; the water should still be warm, not boiling, so that the sauce does not separate into green oils.
  4. 4 Dip the tortilla into the pumpkin seed sauce, add the chopped egg, roll it up, and arrange it on a plate.
  5. 5 Tomatoes are roasted with red onion and habanero peppers, blended into a red sauce, and then drizzled in two diagonal lines over the pizza.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 38 min

    Replace step 5: bake tomatoes, red onions, and habaneros in an air fryer at 200 degrees for 8 minutes, flipping at the 4th minute for even browning, then blend into a red sauce; keep the pumpkin seed sauce steps the same to prevent the sauce from separating.
