TAQUITOS NORTEñOS DE REQUESON (NORTHERN CHEESE TAQUITOS)

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the cheese with the chiles, epazote, salt and pepper.
• Lightly heat the tortillas on a skillet (comal) to soften them up and so that they are easy to handle.
• Near the edge of each tortilla, place a bit of the cheese mixture. Be careful that it does not stick out so it doesn't burn while frying it.
• Roll each tortilla forming "taquitos" or "flautas" and hold with toothpicks (to secure it and avoiding it to open while frying).
• Heat the oil on a skillet and fry 3 tacos at the time and turn them to get an even golden color.
• When you have fried all taquitos, place them over a papel towel to absorb excess oil.
• Cut the "taquitos" in 2 or 3 parts and serve them warm.

BEAN & CHEESE TAQUITOS W/ GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Make guacamole first by combining all ingredients except sour cream.
• Mash and stir until only small lumps of avocado remain.
• Garnish with sour cream piled in the center and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Combine beans, Tabasco, cumin, corriander, salt and cheese stirring well.
• Microwave tortillas between 2 paper towels, 3 at a time on high for 30 seconds.
• Work with one tortilla at a time, keeping the others covered in paper towels so they stay warm and moist.
• Place 1 tablespoon of filling at the center edge of tortilla closest to you and roll tightly away from you like skinny cigar.
• Keep filling away from the edges, as it may leak out when frying and cause the oil to spatter.
• Put seam side down on a paper towel or wax paper and repeat the process until you've made all 24 taquitos.
• Using medium-thick cotton string, toothpicks, or bamboo skewers secure the center seam of each taquito (if you omit this part, they will pop open during frying and make a big mess).
• Heat oil in medium frying pan on medium-high (about 325F) and cook taquitos 4 at a time turning frequently until golden brown on all sides.
• Drain on cooling rack on top of paper towels (this ensures the oil drains away and the taquitos stay crispy).
• Serve hot with guacamole.

CHEESY TAQUITOS (CHEQUITOS) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Once the beef is browned, add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the salt, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, paprika, and oregano. Cook for 2-3 minutes more to allow the flavors to meld and ensure the beef is cooked through. Remove the beef mixture from the pan and set aside.
• In a clean large saucepan over medium heat, combine the shredded chicken and crushed tomatoes. Add the salt, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, paprika, and oregano. Cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the Parmesan and Mexican-blend cheeses.
• Heat a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Add about ¼ cup (25 G) of cheese to the center of the pan and spread into a circle. Let the cheese melt, then add a spoonful of beef or chicken filling to the bottom of the circle.
• Slide the cheese shell out of the pan onto a cutting board and let cool for 30 seconds, then roll tightly to encase the filling. The melted cheese should stick to the outside, sealing the taquito. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Serve the taquitos with lime wedges, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.
• Enjoy!

POTATO CHEESE TAQUITOS

Steps:

• peel and cut potatoes into small squares then boil with salt until tender.
• drain potatoes and then add sour cream and cheese and mix all together as if making mash potatos. They should be thick and a little chunky. Check the taste to make sure it's enough salt or you may also add a little garlic salt. Set aside and start on tortillas.
• warm tortillas on a skillet or in microwave just to soften and keep them warm either in a plastic bag or in a tortilla warmer.
• Scoop some of the potato mix onto your tortilla and you can either roll the tortillas or you can fold them in half. The potato makes the tortilla stick together or if you'd like you can hold with a toothpick.
• Lastly warm the oil and fry your taquitos until gold and crisp. Then drain the oil of the taquitos by placing them on a cookie sheet lined with paper towels for a few minutes.
• VOILA! Just add all the topings over your taquitos and enjoy!
