Making crispy beef tacos a different way

Today I am making crispy ground beef tacos. The method may differ from what you are familiar with, but the taste is just as delicious! I am also going to make a creamy avocado jalapeno dip for topping. This is gonna be good!

Ground Beef Recipe

Happy Friday everyone! 🎉 I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Be sure to check out some of my other videos for recipe ideas. I appreciate you! 🥰🙏🏼

[@deliamcmahon4603]

I love your recipes. Thank you.

[@theguyshow3392]

The raw seasoned ground is surprising, but it makes sense as it intensifies the meaty flavor. Love the spices. And the creamy sauce is genius.

I agree! Her recipes are always easy to follow along with and she uses ingredients that I mostly already have.

This comment made me follow ❤

[@33darkwing]

OMG, my grandmother made these. thank you for bringing her memory back to me. respect Mama

[@baloneysammich4973]

This is how my family make tacos. 🌮 We aren't Latino but Native Americans from California. These are the kind of tacos I grew up with. Slather a small amount of ground beef, or Turkey meat and fry it. Yummy.

[@kristentuosto2553]

My family does this too and we are Natives from Northern Mexico- Southwestern United States (Yaqui/Yo'eme)!

[@janetsways4176]

This is how my mother in law makes tacos. And anyone who has ever had a Jack in the Box taco this is how they make them. Thanks for sharing.

[@victoriaorellana9745]

😮.....

[@Juanagohome]

Yes, exactly!

[@mimismumazingcreations]

I make these but mix in refried beans to stretch the meat just a little bit more. Very delicious!

[@deliamcmahon4603]

That's interesting!! I've never heard of a person doing that.

[@Ella7194]

That sounds like a great idea. It will also lower red meat ingestion there by making the meal more healthy

[@lorieann8522]

I add in black beans to stretch ground turkey for tacos!

[@FernandoTorres-xm7db]

Omg yesss that's how my mom does it and I've been doing it ever since.

[@ashleehowe938]

​@@FernandoTorres-xm7db how long do you fry them for??

[@MindOfInfinity_]

Ever since I learned how to make all these dishes from your channel I have been able to stretch meals and use basically anything and everything in the kitchen my kids love crunchy tacos and I literally went from TV dinners to homemade cooking with your channel I will be forever thankful thankyou so much simply mama cooks!

[@catladyjai1113]

Yes, I will be making these. This is how my sweet Mexican neighbor used to make tacos. She used to always have a pot of beans on her stove and her food was so delicious

[@salcalderon2125]

I'm Mexican and I've never seen that method done before. I think it's an awesome way to do it! Time saver for sure. Gonna make them that way from now on. I love your videos and your also a very clean and lovely young lady. 🙏🏼

[@harleyanne3720]

She is so pretty. And sweet voice.

[@peachhernandez6317]

my mom makes these never thought id see anyone else make them like this love it

[@Non_Of_U_business]

Thanks I grew up with these tacos and I am in my late 50's ...Southwestern States it is most common.. The beef fat mixes with the corn tortilla and is absolutely delicious! We add shredded cheddar to tacos right after removing them from pan, while tacos are hot to melt the cheese...MMM... Yummy!

[@HaleiwaGirl808]

Oh I just live for that sizzling cooking sound when the tacos are frying!

[@deejay5200]

Reminds me of Jack n the box tacos without all the garnishes. Gonna have to try these. W a growing family and food shortage, we gotta stretch everything.

[@thetruthbetold961]

Yum, I love Jack-in-the-box tacos. But I live in the UK now and don't think any are here.

[@robertcooper5375]

Wow you just restored a memory, in the '80s my mom used to do this exact same thing but to the ground beef she would add a can of refried beans and mix it all up and then do everything exactly what you did...

[@penelopelavender248]

My Beautiful Mother did this . I have never seen any one else do this . Lots of yummy memories 🌮🌮🌮

[@michelleschweizer9000]

My grandma used to make these for us every sat when we were kids. Delicious ⭐️

[@carolinaanderson89]

My nose got happy and tingled a bit when you said “smoked paprika” I know this is gonna be good 😋

[@ellejaye22]

I was introduced to this method by one of my Hispanic friends years ago, and my mind was blown! It became my taco go-to! I love your tip of adding the onion inside. I chop my lettuce, tomato and diced de-seeded cucumber with salt/pepper for topping, and add cheese as they come out the fryer so it's nice and melted

[@BethRichLife]

Had this for dinner tonight. The kids actually ate it and enjoyed it. I will add it to my rotation.

[@cherylgriffin9242]

I have a cousin that makes those tacos but she mixes in potatoes in the in the beef she mixes in and she deep fries the tacos like you're doing it's really cool so yeah maybe you could try with them potatoes next time you might turn out really good for you

[@marias6113]

My friend showed me how to make these. When I do make them I have to make at least 3 dozen..my sons love them!

[@tinag13]

My new favorite way to make tacos!!

[@karlagarcia1851]

Súper glad to see so many positive comments! 🥰

[@colleengrisby5427]

Wow 😲 those look absolutely delicious 🤤 can't wait to try

[@drewbear1969]

Just went for groceries today, and between the rising prices and the meat department not always having much to choose from (I've had to get creative with stretching inexpensive bags of chicken legs lately), I appreciate simple recipes like this 😎 I like the idea of mixing in some shredded potato and carrot too, and making it with refried beans or even mashed black beans with lots of cumin y cilantro 🤤 Wanna try baking them sometime as well since I can't do much fried stuff anymore.

[@MsSexyDiva4Lyfe]

Righttt!!! Prices have gon up sooo much

[@susanb5058]

I add black beans into the taco meat and mash it all up together and it’s sooo good! 🌮 🌯

[@deliamcmahon4603]

Before the plandemic, four bags of groceries would cost me around $250 now it's costing me double that amount. I went to the super market barely a week ago and I'm running out of food already. So i know how you guys feel.

[@deliamcmahon4603]

@@susanb5058 my sister makes taco meat that way.

[@susanb5058]

@@deliamcmahon4603 so good, right? A bit healthier and stretches the budget too.

[@jvedra9041]

My Abuela made them like this. My white mom always complained, lol. You can add refried beans or fried potatoes to really stretch it, even 50/50 still tastes good. You can also put some cheese in with the beef- it’s messy but it tastes better.

[@PacoRobbins]

YES!!!!! Mama this is what I requested on a video of yours like 3 weeks ago!! I'm so excited.

[@PJ-wu8wq]

My family loves it when I cook tacos this way! The flavor of the meat gets into the tortilla and makes it so good. I have never put cornstarch in the meat. What does it do?

[@liviscorner992]

These brought back memories, wow!!! Thank you for sharing this recipe ❤️

[@slllloraxxx]

I wonder if this is where the idea of "hard tacos" came from. Seems like a lot of people's grandma made something like this, making due with what was available. Really cool to see history in action.

[@brenda8837]

"Hard" tacos refer to frying in fat/oil or baking the shells until crispy. "Soft" taco shells are generally not warmed at all or slightly warmed or toasted in a pan or on a griddle. Sometimes placed in a dry pan/griddle or a with littlle oil or butter to coat the cooking surface. That's the difference in "hard" or "soft" tacos.👍😀

[@DunyahDances]

I needed a fast and easy recipe tonight so I decided to make these. For some reason I was skeptical about this method but it turned out delicious. Thank you for your wonderful ideas for meals. ❤

[@robertyoung7027]

[@nanaensley6062]

Love this recipe, especially with the rising cost of beef !!!! Great idea!!!!

[@jenjoy3215]

And delicious. I think mixing in some beans actually enhances the taste.

[@deliamcmahon4603]

The ground beef I usually buy went from being $3 to $8 in a matter of two years.

[@RayMacksKitchenandGrill]

I'm here for this awesome recipe...I love her cooking. I have 1 QUESTION: Can these be cooked over a hot grill?

I haven't tried that, but I bet it could work. 😃🙌🏼

[@evelyntobias8081]

@ would the meat be cooked thoroughly on the grill without the tortillas burning?

[@mariacortes5914]

Yes, start low on the grill, so the meat cooks and then to a hotter temp to toast. you can also air fry them. A much healthier version. Yummy

[@rhythmaddict808]

I wrap my tortillas in damp napkin and mircrowave them 15 secs or so, makes them soft.

[@belindadunne4312]

Great idea for stretching that meat, especially with high food prices we are experiencing. Thanks! :)

[@justme-zm2vv]

I too grew up learning cooking from my mom and gramma ...not using measuring spoons. Sometimes I get asked about recipes and I feel bad because I cooked them without measuring. And I'm sure they think I don't want to give them the recipe. Love your recipes...reminds me of home. Sweet memories. Thk you, young lady.

This is the way my mom makes taco's, and how I make them. My dad's mom is the one who taught my mom how to make them.

[@lilliputlittle]

We always cooked the ground beef with seasonings first. Then we filled the tortilla with the beef and some cheese before frying. But, both ways are so delicious.

[@ramonabaiza7629]

I learned to make these with flour tortilla from a friend on high school in 1962. My family loved them. Goood with grated cheese & fresh crispy lettuce tomatoes green onions & salsa. We even took them to school for lunch if there were leftovers. Thx 4 the reminder
