Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/4 cup cotija cheese
- 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 20 corn tortillas
- cooking oil
Instruction
- Mix together the ground beef, cotija cheese and taco seasoning.
- Place 1-1/2 tablespoons of the uncooked meat mixture on one side of the corn tortilla.
- Use a piece of plastic wrap to press it out evenly on one side in a half moon shape.
- All the tortillas will be done this way.
- Heat oil 1/4-1/2 inch deep in a skillet to med-hot. Enough to fry but not submerge the tortilla.
- Place the tortilla unfolded into the skillet, and after a few seconds the tortilla will soften.
- Fold the half of the tortilla without the meat over to cover the meat, and press down lightly with a spatula.
- As it crisps up, turn it over and cook the other side until golden and crisp. Your meat should be cooked thoroughly in this time (it was very thin).
- Drain on paper toweling.
- Serve with salsa dip, or top with things like salsa, pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole, chopped onion, tomato or cilantro. Your choice.
