Make the Red Jalapeno Sauce:
Remove the stems from the peppers and place them in a sauce pan together with the tomatoes, and cook them for about 15 or 20 minutes or until tender. Place the tomatoes and jalapenos in the blender and add in the onion and garlic cloves, add some water and blend until you get a soft sauce.
Transfer the sauce to a saucepan and bring to a boil, if the boil is too thick feel free to add more water, taste the flavor add more salt if needed and add in the dry oregano, stir and bring it to a boil.
Once the sauce is boiling, set it aside to cool down a bit and add in the chopped cilantro, stir and now is ready to be served.
Prepare the beans.
Place the beans in a blender, and season them with salt, add enough water just to be able to blend them, the beans should have a thick consistency, like a "dip", they shouldn't be too runny. Once the beans have the consistency that you like place them in a bowl, and they are ready to be served.
Prepare the Avocado:
Place the avocado in a bowl and season it with plenty of salt and one or two tablespoon of sour cream, stir well and mash them, once you are happy with the flavor you are ready to use them! (if you want you can add the juice of half a lime to the avocado to avoid browning.
To serve:
Grab a tostada and spread a thin layer of beans over it, then add some pickled pork skin and top it with lettuce, onion and tomatoes, also add salsa to taste and garnish with mexican cream!
Spread a thin layer of the avocado mixture on the tostada, top it with lettuce, onion and tomatoes, garnish with mexican cream! Enjoy!!
