How to make Romeritos with shrimp and nopales:
- Below we present the ingredients that we will need to prepare our romeritos with shrimp and nopales.
- On the one hand, to start preparing the romeritos with shrimp, we are going to put the shrimp in a deep bowl with water and let them soak for approximately 1 hour, this in order to desalt them.
- Once this time has passed, we remove the shrimp from the water and reserve them.
- Do not throw away the water as we will use it later in the preparation.
- Meanwhile we take the papilla peppers and brown them in a frying pan, stirring constantly since they tend to burn very quickly, so we only have them in the frying pan for 5 minutes and remove.
- Once the chilies are golden, open them, clean them very well, removing the seeds, and once clean, place them in a container with enough water to cover them and leave them soaking for approximately 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile we take the potatoes, peel them, chop them into small cubes and place them in a saucepan with hot water, so that they cook very well, this takes between 10 and 15 minutes.

- Once ready, remove them from the heat, drain and reserve for a moment.
- Once the guajillo chills are ready, we are going to make the sauce with them: we put these in the blender together with the toasted bread, the peanuts, the onion, the cinnamon, the garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper, we add A splash of water in which the chills were soaked, and we began to blend until obtaining a homogeneous sauce for the romeritos with shrimp and nopales.
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and pour the sauce, let it season for 5 to 8 minutes.
- We are adding a little of the water in which the shrimp were soaked to season the sauce of the romeritos with shrimp.
