Start by seasoning 2 pounds of ground beef with garlic.

Chop the garlic, bell pepper, and carrot for the beef mixture.

Heat a little olive oil in a large skillet and add the chopped onion.

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Season the beef with salt to taste and add the chopped bell pepper and grated carrot.

Once the beef is cooked, add bay leaves for flavor.

Prepare the escabeche by slicing the carrot and onion into rounds.

In a separate pan, heat a little olive oil and add broccoli, onion, bay leaves, vinegar, cabbage, and allspice for color.

Once the escabeche is ready, start making the tortillas by heating a comal.

Shape the masa into small tortillas by hand or using a tortilla press.

Fry the tortillas in hot oil until crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.

Remove the tortillas and drain on paper towels before serving.
