We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: If you're grilling something else too, place the corn tortillas on the edges or the upper level of the grill for more indirect heat. Flip as they toast and remove when crunchy and toasted, but do not let them burn. (You may also use store-bought corn tostadas.)

  • Step 2: Place the cluster of grapes on the side or the top level of the heated grill for indirect heat. Let them grill for 4 to 5 minutes until wilted and heated.

  • Step 3: In a medium bowl, toss fresh and grilled grapes with the serrano, juices, zests, cumin seed and salt. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

  • Step 4: Once grapes have marinated, add remaining oil, onion and celery to the grapes and toss until fully coated. Fold in cilantro and mint.

  • Step 5: To assemble tostada, top each tostada generously with slices of meat that you grilled -if you're using meat.

  • Step 6: Top with a generous amount of pickled grape salad and garnish with queso fresco.
