Thank you for the recipe. I recently went to a farmers market, and kept seeing cactus everywhere. Finally asked about it, and everyone said to have it with eggs. My 20 yr old son, and 18 yr old daughter made it for me today for mothers day following your recipe. Thank you sooooooo much! I was scared, but it was yummy!!

Thanks so much. I bought some at a flea market and the lady there told me what they were. I thought they were cut bell pepper. I didn't ask how to cook them, but, I stir fried them with onion and they were terrific. I went back yesterday and she said..'oh no, you should boil first'. Well, I didn't get sick, so it worked ok with the stir fry. I love to try new foods.

Can you freeze nopales (or nopalitos) for later use? If so, is it best to freeze them cooked or raw? Thank you. And thanks for posting these recipes - they look great!

Hello Anonymous,

Cooking time varies depending on the thickness and freshness of the Nopales. But if you have tender young Nopales, 10 minutes will be enough.

Just cook the Nopales until they are tender but still firm.

Thanks you for valuable question.

This looks like a great recipe, but I must say.......

2010-04-26T13:43:55.067-07:00

This looks like a great recipe, but I must say.... those nopales before cooking are such a beautiful, vibrant green color... after cooking they just look dead. In your opinion, is it necessary to boil the nopales for that long?

Hi there Zerrin,
i didn't know you had those in Turkey, what a surprise. we also eat the fruit and make different desserts with it.I hope you try them.

We have those kinds of cactus here in Turkey, but never thought of making salad from its pads. Noone makes it here. So interesting... We generally eat its fruit, orange in color, which has lots of benefits for health. Seeing these pictures and reading your post, I think I'll be the first to try this salad here. You made me so curious about it.

Very nice food

Hello Jessie & peachkins glad you can get to see here how we cook them. Maybe you could try them sometime.

Hi Fiamma Culinaria,
That is a great way to eat nopales, thanks for the input. My favorite way to eat nopales is grilled toped with melted cheese. Thank you for stopping by.
