Craving for Tacos...

Craving for it had been growing and needed to be satisfied... Ugh..!! I miss my previous flatmate's (AKEMI is her name) homemade tacos... !! *she taught me this...our very own style*

I guess most of you guys have heard about Taco and some might even have tried it before. As you know, taco is a traditional Mexican dish composed of a wheat tortilla folded or rolled around a filling. Why do I say that one can make their own style of taco?? Basically, it is because taco can be made with a variety of fillings including beef, cheese, vegetables, mutton, allowing for great versatility and variety. And you need not use tortilla to be the wrapper, but you can use other kind of bread to replace it just like what I did with my flatmate. That's what I called..... OWN STYLE! tee-hee..

As I said, we did not use the real ingredients of tacos just like in Mexico..but kinda a version of ourselves...

We used:
- Naan bread (replacing the tortilla)

For the fillings... (it depends on what you prefer)
- Tomatoes
- Carrots
- Sausages
- Onions

And we make our own taco seasoning with some Maggi curry paste which I don't think Malaysia has it YET... but you can make it from scratch. Give this recipe for homemade taco seasoning a try...

The Players:

• 1 tablespoon chili powder (toasted and ground dried chillies)
  
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
  

The How-to:

Mix everything. Store in an airtight container.

It wasn't quite the same as the original taco...but it was very tasty and it satisfied my cravings!! Perhaps it's time for me to dig into this recipe & let my hubby have a taste of this succulent taco...!! *hope it turns out good..couldn't guarantee it..if not, poor my little hubby..hehe*
