  • Note: Nopales, or cactus paddles, are actually the leaves of edible cactus. They are available fresh or cleaned and cut into squares in most Mexican markets. Fresh nopales are always preferable, but jarred nopales are convenient and will work just as well. If you use the jarred nopales, simply rinse and drain them, skipping the cooking process in steps 1-4.
