My friend, Anna's former brother-in-law from Mexico used to whip these up for her family. The brother-in-law isn't around any longer, but fortunately for all of us - the recipe is. Anna came over and made this for us for dinner. Thanks, friend!!
2 lbs ground beef
4 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
Corn tortillas (15 or so)
Garlic (2 cloves)
Oil (canola or your favorite)
Toothpicks
Your favorite garnishes:
Sour cream
Lettuce (chopped)
Tomato (chopped)
Cheese (grated)
Pico de gallo
Honeymoon Summer Ale beer or your favorite margarita
Heat oven to 300 degrees. Ground beef and drain. Boil potatoes until soft. Mash potatoes. Mix potato and beef in large pot.
Heat oil in skillet. Warm tortillas and stuff with potato/beef mixture while still warm and soft.
