Crispy Beef Tostadas

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1-1/4 cups milk
• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
• 1 envelope taco seasoning
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
• Oil for deep-fat frying
• Picante sauce
• Shredded lettuce
• Finely chopped green onions
• Chopped tomatoes
• Shredded cheddar cheese

1. In a large bowl, combine flour and baking powder; add the milk to form a soft dough. Cover and let rest for 1 hour.
2. About 30 minutes before serving, in a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in garlic, chilies, taco seasoning and water; simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in beans; heat through and keep warm.
3. Divide dough into sixths. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 7-in. circle. In a deep-fat fryer, preheat oil to 375u0b0. Fry tostadas in hot oil until golden, turning once; drain on paper towels. Top each with meat mixture, picante sauce, lettuce, onions, tomatoes and cheese.
