FIESTA BEEF TORTA OLE



Fiesta Beef Torta Ole image

National Beef Cook-Off winning recipe from 1976 Shirley DeSantis, of New Jersey. A spicy Mexican beef and cheese mixture is covered in a corn pastry shell and baked in a springform pan.

Provided by Allrecipes Member

Time 1h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 ½ pounds ground beef (90 percent lean)
Dough*
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 tablespoons cornmeal
2 tablespoons reserved beaten egg
1 ½ tablespoons pine nuts, if desired
2 (8 ounce) jars taco sauce
1 cup Shredded lettuce
1 cup Cherry tomatoes
1 (4 ounce) can Ripe olives
3 ½ cups unbleached flour
¾ cup yellow cornmeal
¼ cup packed brown sugar
2 (.25 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix, reserved from filling
¾ cup milk
¼ cup margarine
2 large eggs eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Prepare dough as follows: In a large bowl of an electric mixer, mix 3/4 cup flour, cornmeal, brown sugar, yeast, garlic salt and 1 teaspoon taco seasoning. In saucepan, combine milk, 1/3 cup water and margarine; heat over low heat until mixture is very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees). Margarine does not need to be melted. Add mixture gradually to dry ingredients and beat 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a stiff dough. Turn out on a lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • While dough rises, prepare the beef filling. Brown ground beef slowly in large frying pan; drain, if necessary. Add remaining taco seasoning and 1 cup water; simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beans and cheese, blend well. Cool slightly.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a 9-inch springform pan. Fold a 30 x 6-inch piece of heavy tin foil in half lengthwise; fasten foil around top of the pan to form a collar extending about 2 1/2 inches above the rim of the pan (as for souffle); generously grease inside of foil. Dust bottom and sides of pan with cornmeal; discard excess.
  • Punch down dough; divide into three pieces. Pat or roll our each piece of dough to form a 9-inch circle. Fit first round into prepared pan and press at the edge to form a slight rim. Spoon in half of the beef filling, spread evenly almost to edge of pan. Top with a second round of dough on the top; cover and let rise in a warm place until dough is puffed, 25-35 minutes.
  • Score top of torta with a sharp knife into 8 wedges. Brush with reserved egg and sprinkle with pine nuts, if desired. Bake 40 minutes or until dough is deep golden brown.
  • Remove foil and springform rim from torta; place torta on serving platter. Surround with a ring of shredded lettuce, garnished with cherry tomatoes and olives. Heat taco sauce; serve with torta.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beef: For the best results, use a high-quality cut of beef that is well-marbled. This will ensure that the torta is flavorful and juicy.
  • Cook the beef properly: The beef should be cooked until it is tender and slightly pink in the center. This will prevent it from becoming dry and tough.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the torta will taste. This is especially true for the vegetables and herbs.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: The cheese is one of the key ingredients in a torta. Use a good quality cheese that melts well.
  • Serve the torta immediately: A torta is best served immediately after it is made. This will ensure that the bread is still crispy and the cheese is melted and gooey.

Conclusion:

The Fiesta Beef Torta Ole is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for any occasion. It is packed with flavor and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this torta a try. You won't be disappointed!
