Do you want Mexican or Asian tonight? How about a little of both? You can serve these with either hot sauce or sweet and sour sauce depending on which flavor you want to accentuate.
Ingredients:
12 -15 corn tortillas (blanched in oil to soften)
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon accent seasoning (optional)
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
oil (for frying)
salt (for seasoning after frying)
Directions:
1. Combine ground beef, egg, Accent, green onions, soy sauce, salt and pepper.
2. Place some of meat mixture down the middle of a corn tortilla; how much will depend on the size of the tortillas and how big you want them to turn out. Roll up into a cylinder shape (you may want to place a toothpick through the taquito to keep it from unrolling when you fry it).
3. Repeat until all of the meat mixture is gone.
4. Heat oil to 350°F.
5. Drop taquitos in a few at a time (don't overcrowd your pan). Fry until tortilla is golden and meat is cooked through (about 2 minutes).
6. Place on paper towels to drain and sprinkle with salt.
7. Serve while hot.
