Ingredients
- 1 lb of ground beef or 2 340-g pkg veggie ground round
- 1 Tbsp (15 mL) ground cumin
- 1 1/2 cups salsa
- 4 cups of shredded cheese (mozzarella and cheddar)
- 1 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
- 8 medium flour tortillas, about 7" wide
- 1 cup of sour cream
Equipment
- large frying pan
- fork
- cutting board
- knife for chopping
- grater
- casserole dish (9" by 13")
Here is how:
- Preheat oven to 500F (260C).
- Oil a 9×13-in. (3-L) baking dish.
- Set a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Crumble in meat. Sprinkle with cumin and ½ tsp (2 mL) salt. (If using veggie ground round, omit salt.)
- Stir often with a fork to keep meat crumbly. Cook until no pink remains, about 5 min, or until veggie ground is hot.
- Stir in 1 cup (250 mL) salsa. When hot, stir in half the cheese and half the cilantro.
- Place one tortilla on a cutting board. Spoon ¾ cup (175 mL) meat mixture down the centre. Dot with 1 tbsp (15 mL) sour cream. Roll tightly and place in dish, seam-side down with an open end touching the narrow side of dish. Place 3 rolls beside it. Fill the other half of dish with remaining rolls.
- Spread remaining ½ cup (125 mL) sour cream over tortillas. Top with remaining salsa and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake until cheese is golden, about 15 min.
- Sprinkle with remaining cilantro. Good with sliced avocados and sour cream.
