My grandmother was famous for her beef and potato filling for dorado tacos. My grandfather-in-law stuffs his tacos with raw beef and then fries them. If you are not using the toothpicks-I dont-place seam side down in the hot oil first. Remove and drain-repeat and keep warm in the oven until done.

Tacos Durados instructions

Season your ground beef with salt and pepper..
Place two tablespoons of ground beef on half of a tortilla. You want it to be thinner for fast cooking. Repeat until all the meat and tortillas are finished..
Heat your oil over medium/high heat..
Gently place the tortilla into the oil beef side up, and gently fold the tortilla in half enclosing the beef inside..
Fry on each side for about 2 1/2 minutes on each side, then remove and place on a paper towel so get rid of excess oil..
Top with lettuce, tomatoe, sour cream and shredded cheese if you would like :).

South of the border, taquitos are called tacos dorados, or golden tacos. Put two tortillas together and you have a flauta. Whatever you call them, tacos dorados are easy, delicious and versatile. The entree kit, pictured here, comes with a good sized base portion, which gives you plenty of room for these tacos dorados, or a big salad, or another entree of choice. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling, rolling tightly and fitting the tacos in the dish.
