How to Make the Tasquitos
There’s nothing quite like biting into a crispy, golden tasquito right out of the fryer. In this guide, you’ll learn how to make the best tasquitos ever!
1. Preheat your oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the ground beef and cook until browned, about 8 minutes.
4. Stir in the garlic and spices and continue cooking for 1 minute longer. Drain any excess liquid from the mixture.
5. Add the tomato sauce, season with salt and pepper to taste, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.
6. While the sauce is simmering, mix together the corn tortillas and warm them in a dry skillet over medium heat until soft but still pliable (about 2 minutes). Be sure not to let them dry out or they will become tough when cooked later on in step 8: frying them in hot oil!
7. To assemble your tasquitos, spoon a heaping tablespoon of beef mixture into each tortilla wrapper, spreading it evenly across the surface of each one. Roll up each tortilla tightly around its filling, pressing down lightly to form an even pressure seal; be sure not to stretch or twist them too much while rolling! Place seam-side down
