Soft Tacos made simple.

This is an easy and quick recipe for those who want a taste of (New) Mexican food. Instead of shrimp, veal tongue ( = taco de lengua), another meat or seafood can be used.

Marielos made these. I just looked over her shoulder and took the pictures.

INGREDIENTS

This is what you need for 2 servings:

1 lb. cooked salad shrimp, thawed
1 lb. tomatoes, peeled, cored
OR use canned whole or crushed
8 corn tortillas
S&P, your favorite spices
cilantro for garnish

Directions

Heat the tomatoes until soft; then crush.
Continue simmering down until the desired thickness has been reached.
Make it very thick. Leaking tacos are no fun.

Carefully stir in the shrimp.
Simmer for a few minutes until warmed throughout. (Pic2)
Heat the corn tortillas as preferred in the microwave, on stovetop or fry in oil to make tostadas.
Add a serving spoonful of shrimp and sauce to each tortilla. (Pic3)
Optional:
- Garnish with cilantro.
Serve immediately and enjoy. (Pic1)
