Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and season with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Make the Tacos

    In a separate skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Take a corn tortilla, fill it with the cooked beef, fold in half, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Repeat for all tortillas.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tacos

    Once the tacos are cooked, remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Top each taco with pickled cabbage, pickled jalapenos, a drizzle of crema, and a sprinkle of queso fresco.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with ancho tomatillo salsa and guacamole salsa on the side for dipping.
