Instructions

1. 1

   Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula, until it starts to brown.

2. 2

   Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is soft and the beef is fully browned.

3. 3

   Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef and onion mixture. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water, stir well, and cook for another 2 minutes until the seasoning is well incorporated. Remove from heat.

4. 4

   In a separate skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

5. 5

   Once the oil is hot, carefully place one corn tortilla in the oil. Fry for about 10-15 seconds on each side until the tortilla is pliable but not crispy.

   Using tongs, fold the tortilla in half to form a taco shell and fry for another 10-15 seconds on each side until golden and slightly crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

   Fill each fried tortilla shell with a generous spoonful of the seasoned beef mixture.
