Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, fry each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

  2. 2

    Fill the Tortillas

    Spread about 1/4 cup of refried beans evenly on each tortilla. Top with a handful of shredded lettuce and a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese.

  3. 3

    Roll and Secure

    Carefully roll each tortilla tightly, securing the filling. You can use a toothpick to hold them together if desired.

  4. 4

    Final Fry

    In the same skillet, add a little more oil if needed and fry the rolled tortillas seam-side down for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Flip and fry the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, drain on paper towels, and serve warm with your choice of salsa or dipping sauce.
