Step 1: Cook Ground Beef

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Break it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, ensuring even browning. Continue until the beef is fully cooked and browned with no pink remaining.

Step 2: Drain Excess Fat

Drain any excess grease to prevent a greasy final dish. Return the skillet to the stove on low heat, ready for seasoning.

Step 3: Season the Beef

Add ½ cup of tomato sauce and your homemade seasoning mix. Stir until all meat is thoroughly coated. This step ensures every bite is flavored.

Step 4: Simmer

Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and thicken slightly for better texture.

Step 5: Fry Tortillas

In a separate skillet, heat ½ cup oil over medium-high heat. Check oil readiness with a tortilla edge; it should sizzle immediately. Fry each tortilla for about 30 seconds per side until they achieve a light golden color.

Step 6: Shape Tortillas

Lift tortillas out of the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Use tongs to fold them into taco shapes while warm, preparing them to hold the seasoned beef without breaking.

Step 7: Fill and Serve

Fill the tacos with the beef mixture and your choice of toppings. Serve promptly for optimal texture and taste.
