Beef Tacos
Cultural Context
Tacos are a traditional Mexican dish that has gained worldwide popularity. They are often filled with various ingredients, with beef being a common choice. The dish reflects the rich culinary heritage of Mexico, where street vendors and home cooks alike create their own versions, showcasing regional flavors and ingredients. Tacos are versatile and can be customized with different toppings and salsas, making them a beloved meal for many.
ground beef
🥗Healthier: ground turkey
💰Cheaper: ground pork
Ground turkey is lower in fat, while ground pork is often less expensive.
cheese
🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast
💰Cheaper: processed cheese
Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor, while processed cheese is budget-friendly.
Start by making the tortillas. Combine 1.5 cups all-purpose flour, 0.5 teaspoons baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoons salt in a bowl.
Mix the dry ingredients with a fork or whisk until well incorporated.
Add 0.5 cups of hot water and mix until crumbly.
Incorporate 0.25 cups of vegetable oil and mix until the dough comes together, resembling biscuit dough.
Knead the dough in the bowl for about 7 to 10 minutes until smooth.
Roll the dough into a ball and cut it into sections for individual tortillas.
Shape each section into a ball and then flatten it into a disc using a rolling pin or a clean flat bottle.
Alternatively, use a clean paper plate to press the dough into a flat tortilla.
Heat a skillet to medium-high, then reduce to low. Cook each tortilla until bubbles form, then flip to cook the other side.
In the same skillet, add 1.5 pounds of ground beef and season with 0.5 teaspoons seasoned salt and black pepper to taste.
Cook the beef thoroughly, ensuring no raw bits remain, then strain it.
Return the beef to the skillet, add canned diced green chilies, and 1 teaspoon of tomato paste with a little water to thicken.
Add 0.5 teaspoons garlic salt, 0.5 teaspoons onion powder, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin, and 1 sazon seasoning packet to the beef.
Mix well to combine the seasonings with the cooked beef.
Plate the tacos and serve.
