Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Corn tortillas
- 2 cups Refried beans
- 1 cup Shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- Optional toppings (guacamole, sour cream, salsa)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the refried beans, shredded cheese, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Warm the corn tortillas slightly in the microwave (10-15 seconds) or on a dry skillet over medium heat to make them pliable and prevent cracking while rolling.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the refried bean mixture onto the lower third of each tortilla. Spread it slightly, then tightly roll the tortilla around the filling to create a taquito. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
Secure the taquitos seam-side down with a toothpick to hold their shape while frying.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C), or until a small piece of tortilla sizzles when added to the oil.
Carefully place a few taquitos seam-side down into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
Cook the taquitos for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to turn them gently.
Remove the fried taquitos and place them on a plate or tray lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Once all the taquitos are cooked, remove the toothpicks and serve warm with optional toppings such as guacamole, sour cream, or salsa.
