Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 1 packet Taco Seasoning (1 oz)
- 4 oz Refried Beans
- 4 oz Cheddar Cheese
- 6 Tortillas (8 Inches)
- Pam Cooking Spray
- Cooking Oil (For Frying)
Instructions
- Begin by placing a saucepan over medium heat. In this saucepan, cook the ground beef until it's fully browned and thoroughly cooked.
- Once the beef is cooked, introduce the taco seasoning. Mix it diligently, ensuring the seasoning spreads evenly throughout the beef.
- Now, add the refried beans and cheddar cheese to the beef mixture. Stir continuously until the cheese melts, and all the ingredients blend harmoniously.
- Spoon this delightful mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Carefully roll up the tortillas, ensuring a snug and secure wrap.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, like Pam.
- Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on the baking sheet. For a golden finish, lightly spray the tops of the tortillas with cooking spray.
- Bake the tortillas in your preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes. Look for the edges to begin turning a lovely shade of brown.
- Once baked, take the tortillas out and cut each one in half. Give them a little time to cool.
- Now, place these tortilla halves in a ziplock bag and let them chill in the freezer. Freezing helps them hold their shape while frying.
- In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat your cooking oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- Carefully place the frozen tortilla halves into the hot oil and fry them for approximately 90 seconds on each side. The goal here is to achieve a beautiful golden brown and crispy exterior.
- Using a slotted spoon, lift the fried Mexi Rolls from the oil and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
- Alternatively, you can deep fry the Mexi Rolls for 2.5 minutes until they reach that perfect golden brown and crispy texture.
- Your Crispy Mexi Rolls Are Ready! Once drained, your mouth-watering Mexi Rolls are ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- Play with various seasoning blends for unique flavours.
- Avoid overstuffing tortillas for easier rolling.
