I realize this is a broad question, but I’d be interested in personal anecdotes. Are they even common? (Obviously varies by county and region)

Can you get cumin? If so, you can probably make some pretty good tacos.

Only the following 6 ingredients are required:

Tortilla

Ground meat - I recommend beef

Onion

Salt

Minced Garlic or garlic powder

Cumin powder

All other ingredients are optional

Cooking:

Chop enough onion to make a pile 1/2 the size of the meat

Cook the onion over medium heat until it starts to soften

Add a little garlic

Add the meat

Turn up the heat a little

add a little salt

Add a lot of cumin - this should be the dominant flavor

Add a little of any/all optional seasonings for depth of flavor

When the ground meat is done cooking, add more salt to taste. Be careful not to over salt it.

warm the tortillas

Add meat & any/all optional ingredients to the tortillas

Enjoy!

Optional Seasonings:

chili powder optional

A very little bit of MSG optional

Black pepper optional

Onion powder optional recommended

Optional Ingredients:

Chopped Cilantro optional

Chopped Tomato optional recommended

Sour cream optional recommended

Salty shredded cheese optional (Cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, Muenster, etc)

Salsa optional (should have tomato chunks and not look like marinara)
