Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pound ground beef (or  ground chicken)
  • 4 tablespoons paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chilli powder
  • 1 cup water
  • 16  flour (tortillas)
  • 3 cups vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons cumin
  • 4 tablespoons salsa
  • 1 ½ cups (shredded) cheese
  • 2 sliced avocados
  • 4 tablespoons sour cream

Instructions
 

  • To achieve an optimal flavour profile, utilize a food processor to finely grind and season the beef or chicken. Strive for a thin consistency, being cautious not to over-process and cause excessive liquefaction.
  • Enhance the flavour of the beef or chicken by marinating it prior to cooking. To ensure food safety, place the meat in a zip-lock bag while allowing it to absorb the delightful flavours.
  • In a sizable skillet, heat 1 ½ tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil reaches a sizzling point, add the seasoned beef or chicken to the pan, stirring continuously to prevent sticking or charring.
  • Upon achieving thorough cooking of the meat, remove it from the stovetop and allow it to cool before proceeding with the meal preparation.
  • Preheat the oil over a medium to low setting and proceed to fill the Crispitos with the recently cooked meat.
  • With careful attention, roll each Crispito into an oblong shape and firmly seal the edges to ensure optimal results. The shape should be well-defined and the contents tightly secured, ready for the cooking process.
  • Attain perfection in the frying process by gently cooking the Crispitos in hot oil until they acquire a golden, crispy texture. Prolonged cooking is unnecessary as the filling is already cooked.
  • After cooking, place the Crispitos on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  • To introduce a unique twist to your Crispitos, prepare an irresistible topping consisting of shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, and sliced avocados.
  • Indulge in this chef-inspired dish with the opportunity to personalize it to your liking. Enhance the spice level with onions or jalapenos, adjust the seasoning to suit your taste preferences, and relish the exquisite flavour.
