This recipe is normally prepared by inserting all the ingredients through a wire-like skewer and grilled on an open-flame grill. For this version, we are using a pot that will allow the cheese to melt all over.
150gmozzarella cheesesubstitute with any melty cheese
Olive oil
Pepper and salt to taste
To serve
12corn tortillas preferably from La Tortilleria
2limes
Favourite salsa
Instructions
Cut the meat and bacon into stripes, remove the ends and seeds from the capsicums and cut into stripes too, cut the onion into half moons and finely chop the garlic.
In a medium-hot pan pour a little of olive oil and add the bacon, cook for about 5 minutes, then add the beef, garlic, salt and pepper to taste, stir and cook over low heat with the lid on for another 5 minutes.
Once the meat is almost done, add the onion and capsicums, cook until the onion turns transparent, stirring constantly.
Grate the cheese and add it over the meat, turn off the heat and let it gratin with the lid on for a few minutes.
Reheat the tortillas and fill them in with the 'alambre' mixture. Serve it with half lime and your favourite salsa.
¡Buen provecho!
Notes
