Subj : 10/4 National Taco Day 3 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Thu Oct 02 2025 11:18:24 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Leo & Benno's Beef Taco Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Citrus, Breads Yield: 10 servings 2 tb Extra virgin olive oil 1/2 Red onion; peeled, halved, - sliced in thin half-moons 2 1/4 lb Ground chuck 2 ts Salt 1 1/2 tb Ground cumin 4 1/2 oz Tube tomato paste 4 cl Garlic; peeled: 3 chopped, 1 - whole 14 (to 16) corn tortillas 2 Limes 1/2 c Fresh cilantro leaves In a large frying pan, over medium-high heat, drizzle olive oil into the bottom of the pan. Add in the red onion and cook until they are slightly brown (3 to 4 minutes). Add the meat in thirds, 5 seconds between. Season with salt and chop the meat into several parts with the sharp edge of a wooden stirrer. Brown the meet throughly (6 to 8 minutes). Drain some of the grease, but leaving a little will add flavor. When the meat is almost ready, add cumin and tomato paste (Tuscan Toothpaste, as Batali calls it) over the meat and stir well. This keeps your tacos from being dry. Add in the chopped garlic and the whole clove (but remove the whole clove before serving!). Cook for 1 to 2 minutes to add flavor to the meat and then remove from the heat. To cook the tortillas, put the burner on medium low and put it right on the burner. You’ll need an electric stove for this one, folks. Flip the tortilla with tongs and then wrap them in a towel. To serve this meal, put the meat in a bowl, tortillas on a plate or holder, cut limes into wedges and put cilantro in a cup. Take a tortilla, add meat, cilantro and squeeze the lime on the meat.
