Mom's Fried Tacos

• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 12 -16 corn tortillas
• vegetable oil (for frying)
• shredded lettuce
• diced tomato
• diced onion
• shredded cheddar cheese
• taco sauce or salsa

1. Heat oven to the "warm" setting to keep the cooked tacos warm while frying the bunch.
2. Take a scoop of hamburger about the size of a golf ball and press it on one half side of a tortilla.
3. Spread it out to cover as much of the half as you can.
4. Do this to each tortilla.
5. Cover the finished stack with a slightly damp paper towel to keep the tortillas from drying out around the edges.
6. In the largest skillet you have, heat about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch oil.
7. Once it is hot, lay a tortilla (hamburger side up) in the hot oil.
8. After the tortilla has softened in the oil, about 5-10 seconds, use tongs to fold it in half.
9. Let it cook in the oil for about 2-3 minutes.
10. Flip over for another 2-3 minutes.
11. Remove tacos from the oil with tongs and let any excess oil run out one end before placing on a cookie sheet covered with paper towels.
12. Keep these in the oven as you cook the batch.
13. Once finished serve with toppings.
