- Add your potatoes and ground beef to your onions. Add your salt, pepper, meat seasoning, garlic, and cilantro. Blend well. Continue to stir frequently until your meat is evenly browned..

- Warm your tortillas for a few seconds over medium heat, 1 at a time as your filling them. The heat will soften them making them easier to bend into a shell without cracking..
- Once your oil is nice and hot, one at a time, fill each tortilla with 2 spoon fulls of your potato meat mix. Add them to your oil, and let fry on both sides till they're a nice golden brown color... I like to put 3 tacos in at a time so I can make sure they cook nice and even, that way I can monitor each one. They can brown pretty quickly depending on how high your heat is..
- As you remove them from the pan, lay the tacos on a paper towel covered plate. Thw paper towel will absorb some of the grease. You can even pat the sides of each taco to remove more grease..
