Notes
Notes
• Heat corn tortillas in small skillet for 20 seconds per side so they are pliable. If you skip this step, the tortillas will break apart is you roll them up.
• Don’t use pre-shredded cheese. It doesn’t taste as good and also has addition ingredients that you don’t need. Just buy blocks of cheese and grate yourself.
• Use about 2–3 tablespoons of filling per tortilla. Overfilling can cause the tacos to burst open while frying or baking.
•Place the tacos seem-side down so they stay rolled up. You can also toothpicks to the center.
• Spray the tacos with cooking spray or brush with oil to help them get crispy.
