Cooking directions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef. Break the beef up with a wooden spoon while cooking. Cook the ground beef fully, until browned and no longer pink.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet. Then return to the stove and reduce the heat to low.
Add the 1/2 cup of marinara sauce along with the spices. Stir together until the meat is coated in the sauce.
Allow the meat and sauce to simmer for 5 minutes.
Pour 1/2 cup of oil in a medium size skillet, heat over medium high heat. Gently lay the tortilla in the oil and fry each side for about 30 seconds, just enough to give some colour and add some crispness.
Remove the tortilla to a paper towel to absorb oil, and carefully fold the tortilla over to create a taco shape.
Fill the tortillas with the ground beef taco meat and add desired toppings.
