Bean & Cheese Taquitos w/ Guacamole image

I love taquitos, but it can be hard to find vegetarian-friendly versions (especially in restaurants). This easy recipe can be adapted for vegan diets as well.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 1/2 tablespoons TABASCO® brand Chipotle Pepper Sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
24 small corn tortillas (the thin ones work best if you can find them)
1 cup corn oil or 1 cup vegetable oil, for frying
3 ripe avocados
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 lime, juice of
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno pepper
3 tablespoons minced onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
3 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Make guacamole first by combining all ingredients except sour cream.
  • Mash and stir until only small lumps of avocado remain.
  • Garnish with sour cream piled in the center and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Combine beans, Tabasco, cumin, corriander, salt and cheese stirring well.
  • Microwave tortillas between 2 paper towels, 3 at a time on high for 30 seconds.
  • Work with one tortilla at a time, keeping the others covered in paper towels so they stay warm and moist.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of filling at the center edge of tortilla closest to you and roll tightly away from you like skinny cigar.
  • Keep filling away from the edges, as it may leak out when frying and cause the oil to spatter.
  • Put seam side down on a paper towel or wax paper and repeat the process until you've made all 24 taquitos.
  • Using medium-thick cotton string, toothpicks, or bamboo skewers secure the center seam of each taquito (if you omit this part, they will pop open during frying and make a big mess).
  • Heat oil in medium frying pan on medium-high (about 325F) and cook taquitos 4 at a time turning frequently until golden brown on all sides.
  • Drain on cooling rack on top of paper towels (this ensures the oil drains away and the taquitos stay crispy).
  • Serve hot with guacamole.

I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but these taquitos were surprisingly good. The filling was flavorful and the guacamole was creamy and tangy. I would definitely make these again.

These taquitos were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try baking them next time instead of frying them.

The taquitos were easy to make and turned out great. The guacamole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but that's just a personal preference.
