How to Fry Extra Thin Carne Picada : Mexican Recipes

Heat 2 quarts of olive oil in a pot until it reaches a boil.

In a large mixing bowl, combine carne picada, 2 tablespoons of cumin, 1 tablespoon of ground garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour.

Mix the ingredients thoroughly to avoid lumps.

Once the oil is ready, sprinkle in the seasoned beef.

Fry the beef for about 3 to 5 minutes on high heat, stirring gently to prevent sticking.

After frying, place the beef on a self-draining pan to drain for about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Add a little bit of cilantro on top before serving.
