Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 12 small Corn tortillas
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 0.5 cup Guacamole
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Add the butter, milk, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
Spoon 2 tablespoons of the mashed potato mixture onto one edge of each tortilla. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure it with a toothpick, if needed.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Fry the rolled tacos in the hot oil, seam-side down, until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the tacos with tongs and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve the potato rolled tacos with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, salsa, and guacamole on the side for topping or dipping.
