Ingredients
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying or spray oil
- Guacamole or salsa for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mash the black beans slightly and mix in corn, cumin, chili powder, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper.
- Assemble the Taquitos: Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side to make them pliable. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of each tortilla, roll tightly, and secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Fry the Taquitos: Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Carefully place the taquitos seam-side down in the oil, frying until golden and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve: Remove the taquitos from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with guacamole or salsa.
