1
Cook the ground beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula.
2
Add seasoning
Once the beef is browned, drain any excess grease. Stir in the taco seasoning and add the water. Mix well.
3
Simmer
Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens.

4
Warm the tortillas
In a separate pan, heat the tortillas on medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, until they are warm and pliable.
5
Fill the tortillas
Lay the warmed tortillas flat, and spoon a portion of the taco filling (about 1/3 cup) onto each tortilla.
6
Add cheese and toppings
Sprinkle shredded cheese over the filling, then add shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes on top.
7
Roll the tacos
Carefully roll each tortilla tightly around the filling. Place seam side down on a plate.
8
Finish with sour cream
Drizzle sour cream on top of each rolled taco or serve it on the side for dipping.

9
Fry the rolled tacos
In the same skillet used for the beef, add olive oil and heat over medium heat. Once hot, place the rolled tacos seam side down in the skillet.
10
Cook until golden
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
