Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

  • Soaking the onion in ice water removes the spiciness while keeping the crunchy texture.
  • Spread the beef mixture thinly and evenly to the edges of the tortilla to prevent it from shrinking and falling off during cooking.
  • If you're concerned about the amount of mayonnaise and ketchup, use half-fat mayonnaise or zero-calorie ketchup to further reduce calories.
