Fataya version breaded tacos: Crispy and generous fusion by Feemu Fii Ak Feneen

Ingredients

Cakes and gourmet stuffing:

  • 4 medium-sized soft wheat tortillas
  • 300 g of seasoned minced meat or minced sautéed chicken
  • 1 chopped onion, 1 teaspoon taco spice or Senegalese nokoss
  • 100 g of melted grated cheese and 2 tablespoons of cheese sauce or spicy mayonnaise

Crispy breading:

  • 2 eggs beaten into an omelette
  • 150 g golden breadcrumbs (or extra-crispy Panko breadcrumbs)
  • Frying oil

Preparation

  1. Prepare the stuffing: brown the meat with the onion and spices for 8 minutes until completely cooked. Leave to cool.
  2. Garnish and fold the tacos: spread the center of each tortilla with sauce, add the meat and a generous handful of cheese. Fold the four sides towards the center to form a well-closed and compact rectangle.
  3. English-style breading: dip each folded taco in the beaten egg, making sure to wet the joints, then coat it generously with crispy breadcrumbs.
  4. Golden frying: fry in a pan with 2 cm of hot oil over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the breading is very crispy and the cheese is completely melted inside.
  5. Tasting: cut on an angle and serve hot with a dip sauce of your choice.
