6 corn tortillas
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon corn oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 small tomato, diced
1 medium avocado, sliced
2 cups lettuce, chopped
4 ounces cheddar, grated
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
salt and pepper
deep fryer

  1. Heat oil in deep fryer to 380 degrees.
  2. Add tortillas one at a time. Cook until lightly bulby on one side, then flip. Remove from the oil after about 2 minutes, before it crisps but will still retain its shape.
  3. Fold tortilla in half with a wooden spoon or similar cylinder in the center and allow to cool on a paper towel.
  4. Meanwhile, sauté onion in corn oil with spices in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add the ground beef and cook until brown. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Prepare tacos by filling with a portion of ground beef, tomato, avocado, lettuce and cheddar.
