Panuchos · Mérida

Panuchos are Yucatecan puffed tortillas split, stuffed with refried black beans, then fried and topped with shredded turkey, pickled red onion, avocado and habanero salsa.

Panuchos are an early-20th-century Yucatecan invention, attributed to Doña Vale of Campeche who, the story goes, mixed leftover bean paste into fried tortillas to extend a meal. The name comes from 'pan de Don Ucho', a regional baker. The dish moved up the peninsula and became the Mérida market breakfast.
