TOPSEE TURVIE TACOS "A WET TACO"



Topsee turvie tacos

Now I realize there are purest out there who say a real taco should only be served in a shell with dry seasoned meat, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream etc. So to them I say "pishshaw"...I'm a out side of the box kind of lady who loves throwing caution to the wind with my cooking and baking.... My husband likes this with the traditional shells but I like to eat this with Frito's scoops.

Number Of Ingredients 11

- 2 lbs. ground sirloin
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 - 24 ounce jar salsa " any kind you like " i used pace chunky"
- 1 - 6 oz. can tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 envelopes hot taco seasoning
- ½ can diet coke " my secret ingredient"
- sour cream topping:
- 1 - 16 ounce container of sour cream " i use daisy"
- 2 - 3 tablespoons assorted fresh peppers chopped
- 1 small bunch green onions chopped using both the white and green parts

Steps:

  • Brown the sirloin, drain any grease that may be in the pot.
  • Put the sirloin back into the pot; add the juice of the lime.
  • Add the salsa and take a few tablespoons of water and add to the jar, cover and shake to get out all the salsa and add to the pot.
  • Add the tomato paste and mix thoroughly.
  • Add the light brown sugar and taco seasonings and mix again.
  • Simmer this on low for at least 1 hour or till it is really thick and yummy! The longer it cooks the better it will taste.
  • Once it gets all thick and yummy, drain the meat in a strainer over a bowl...it will seem thick but you'll get about 2 cups or so of the delicious tomato sauce from it...DON'T THROW OUT THE SAUCE...freeze it for fall soup, salsas, or any other Mexican recipe you may have.
  • To make the sour cream:
  • Chop and add what ever combination of peppers you like. Chop both the white and green parts of green onions. Add to the sour cream, mix well and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve this with the sour cream, green onions, cheese and shells or scoops.

Yield Makes 12 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds honeycomb tripe
Kosher salt
8 tomatillos, roughly chopped (about 3/4 pound)
2 small red onions, chopped
2 jalapeños, stemmed and cut in half lengthwise
10 cloves garlic
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 1/2 cups cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
1 cup mint leaves, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup oregano leaves, plus more for garnish
4 tablespoons fish sauce
4 limes, zested and juiced
12 corn tortillas
3 tablespoons sunflower seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds, toasted
3 tablespoons peanuts, chopped and toasted
Diced white onion, optional, for garnish

Steps:

  • Poach the tripe:

  • Make the herbal tomatillo sauce:
  • Toss the chopped tomatillos, onions, jalapeños, and garlic in 2 tablespoons oil. Broil on a foil- lined baking sheet until vegetables are blackened in spots, 10 to 15 minutes. Purée the blackened vegetables, herbs, fish sauce, lime zest and juice in a blender. Let sauce cool.
  • Pan-fry the tripe:
  • Slice the cooled tripe into 1/4-inch strips. Heat the remaining 1/2 cup of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, carefully pan-fry the strips of tripe on one side until golden brown. Place tripe on a paper towel-lined plate as you work and sprinkle with salt. After the last batch, drain the pan of all oil and add the pan-fried tripe and the tomatillo sauce. Toss the tripe in the sauce over medium heat until softened and coated.
  • Assemble the tacos:
  • Assemble the tacos: Warm the tortillas. Divide the tripe between the tortillas and top with toasted seeds and nuts. Garnish with additional chopped herbs and white onion, if desired.
