I ate a dish similar to this in a resteraunt. I could never find a recipe, so I made up my own. This recipe is almost exact to the one I had in the resteraunt. You can spice it up with peppers, guacomole, or anything else. Any meltable cheese can be used for the sauce. Let me know what you think.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon taco seasoning mix, or more to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¼ cup sour cream
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ cup margarine
6 (7 inch) corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Brown the ground beef, onion, garlic, taco seasoning, and oregano in a skillet over medium heat, breaking the meat up into crumbles as it cooks, about 8 minutes. Drain off excess fat. Stir in sour cream, chilies, and vinegar until well mixed. Remove from heat, and mix in the Cheddar cheese.
  • Melt margarine in a small skillet over low heat. When melted, dip each tortilla into the margarine for about 30 seconds, or until soft. Place the softened tortilla onto a baking sheet, and fill with about 1/3 cup of the meat mixture. Fold the right and left sides of the tortilla over the filling, then the top and bottom, making an envelope that completely encloses the filling. Flip the tortilla seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the tortilla is crisp, about 15 minutes.

Categories     Meat

Time 3h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 chilies, chopped
1 kg rump steak
2 cups beef stock
4 ready made flour tortillas
more oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion over medium head for 10 minutes or until very soft and golden brown. Add the garlic, cumin, cinnamon & chilli and cook, stirring for another minute.
  • Add the steak and turn to coat with the spices, then stir in the stock, scraping the bottom of the pan. Bring just to the boil, reduce the heat and gently simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Uncover and cook for a further 1-1 1/2 hours, or until the liquid has just about evaporated. Stir frequently towards the end of the cooking time to prevent burning on the bottom of the pan.
  • Shred the meat, using two forks to pull it apart, then leave to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to warm 160 degrees celcius/ 315 degrees farenheight. Wrap the tortillas in foil and place in the oven for 10 minutes to soften. Remove from the oven and leave wrapped for another 5 minutes. Working with one at a time (and leaving the other tortillas wrapped as you work), place a quarter of the meat on one tortilla and fold in the sides to enclose. Set aside, fold-side-down while you fill the remaining tortillas.
  • Heat about 2cm of oil in a frying pan to moderately hot. Place a few chimichangas fold-side-down in the pan, then turn and cook the other side until golden and crisp. Repeat with the rest of the chimichangas.
  • Drain on a paper towel and serve immediately.
  • Serve with Mexican Rice!
