<o:p></o:p> These are very good.<o:p></o:p> I sear and cook a roast<o:p></o:p> I put onions on top<o:p></o:p> Lots of garlic salt and black pepper and red chili powder<o:p></o:p> Add some water when cooking<o:p></o:p> When done pour liquid off and save<o:p></o:p> I pour off the grease of the liquid<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> After it is done I put it though my meat grinder [add liquid back as or if needed] <o:p></o:p> Now is the time to add more garlic salt, red chili powder, black pepper<o:p></o:p> Season to taste [hot].<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Ahead of time [as they will be hot to handle]<o:p></o:p> Take corn tortillas and fry them a few seconds in oil till soft<o:p></o:p> Fry to long or not enough you can not roll them. [Practice]<o:p></o:p> I drain them on a little bent cake cooling wire in a pie pan.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Take your meat about 1 Tbs roll into a log place 1 “inside a tortilla”<o:p></o:p> [I use a sausage making tool to make logs]<o:p></o:p> And roll up tight, use a toothpick to secure.<o:p></o:p> Then I deep fry them till the tortillas are hard. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> You can freeze the meat to make more, later. I make a large batch when I make them and freeze them ahead. I defrost in the micro then put them in a toaster oven to harden the tortillas again. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> I dip them in this salsa:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Tomato salsa NM style<o:p></o:p> One gallon tomato sauce<o:p></o:p> 4 large onions diced<o:p></o:p> 1 cup hot green chili chopped<o:p></o:p> 6 jalapeno diced [may add powered instead]<o:p></o:p> Garlic salt to taste<o:p></o:p> Heat in a large pan –simmer about 15 mins<o:p></o:p> Pour into containers and freeze<o:p></o:p> Use as needed- I defrost in the micro.<o:p></o:p> You can quarter for smaller batch, but why cook again?<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> |
Oh my, I just died and went to Heaven. This is definately one for the printer. Thanks

Sounds tasty! I don't deep fry- do you think that these would work in the oven?
I think I might try- have some lovely left over roast beef in the fridge as it happens :-) |
I have never tried left over meat. I guess it would work if you season it good. I can tell you when you cook a roast this way it taste different. Try it and see. Let us know.<O:p></O:p>
You have to fry the tortillas to roll them. You may be able to bake them, try it and see.<o:p></o:p> |
Oh, I forgot!<o:p></o:p>
If you heat this ground meat<o:p></o:p> Put it on a large hot flour tortilla with a little graded cheese, green chili, and salsa<o:p></o:p> Roll it up and eat it. It is a meal itself.<o:p></o:p> |
Ayeee!! Phyllis, everytime I read your receipes from NM, I get sooo hungry. Everytime I go back home to Albuq. I bring back all the green & red chili I can carry in my suitcase. One time last year coming back to Denver, this man got on the plane with a huge sack of red chili pods, he was not going to let that chili go underneath the plane and I didn't blame him. Next time I fly I am going to do the same thing. I don't want my chili getting lost!! Oh no!! :D

You can definitely use leftover meat to make tacos or taquitos or enchiladas or burritos. Beef, turkey chicken, pork. Yum yum!
