Ingredients
1. 2 lbs ground beef
2. 1 teaspoon Salt
3. 2 tablespoons Chili powder
4. 2 tablespoons Paprika
5. 1 teaspoon Cumin
6. 1 teaspoon Garlic powder or 2 cloves
7. 1/2 diced Bell pepper
8. 1/2 diced medium Onion
9. 12 corn tortillas
Instructions: serves 6
In 2-quart sauce pan add ground beef, salt, chili powder, garlic, cumin, and paprika. Put in enough water to cover meat. Bring to a boil. Simmer over medium low heat about an hour. Then add 1/2 medium chopped onion, 1/2 medium chopped bell pepper and continue cooking 20 or 30 more minutes. I am not a fan of bell peppers so I always leave them out. For beef flautas: Heat oil in skillet. Cook corn tortillas, one at a time, in hot oil until soft, about 5 to 10 seconds; drain. Strain liquid, then spoon about 2 tablespoons of the beef meat in center of each tortilla. Roll the tortilla around the beef filling into flute shape. Use toothpicks to hold the tortilla in the flute shape. Fry beef flautas approximately 2-3 minutes or until tortilla holds its shape. Remove the toothpicks and place 2-3 flautas per plate. Serve salsa, sour cream, and guacamole on the side, along with whatever else you want: rice, beans, corn, green beans, carrots? No red or white wine necessary. A soft drink or a beer will do.
