Rolled Tacos

Love a rolled up taco. Fried, stacked, guacamole on the side. Not a street taco — a different kind of heaven.

The Filling

  1. 01Warm tortillas so they roll without cracking.
  2. 02Spoon filling down the centre, roll tight, pin with a toothpick.
  3. 03Fry in 350°F oil until deep gold, 2–3 minutes. Drain.

On the Side

  1. 01Mash avocado with lime and salt. Crema in a bowl. Salsa in another.

Taco Time

  1. 01Pull the toothpicks.
  2. 02Stack them. Guacamole, crema, salsa on top or on the side.
  3. 03Eat with your hands. I'll take 17.

King's notes

  • Leftover barbacoa is the best filling. Fresh-cooked meat is too wet and bursts.
  • Don't skip the drain on a rack. Soggy rolled tacos are a tragedy.
