INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut the beef into 4 pieces. Place in a 5 to 6-quart pan and add water to
cover. Bring to a boil; skim the foam from the surface. Add the salt,
pepper, and garlic. Simmer until tender, approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
2. Drain the beef, reserving 1/2 cup of the broth. When the meat is cool,
shred. Chop 2 of the tomatoes.
3. Melt the shortening in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and bell
pep- per and saute until tender. Add the flour, whisking until no lumps
remain, and cook 2 minutes. Add the shredded beef, reserved broth, chopped
tomatoes, and whole chiles. Simmer 15 minutes.
4. Place about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture in a line down the center of
each tortilla. Fold both ends over 1 inch to 2 inch; fold one side over the
other and roll up in a neat package. Secure with a toothpick.
5. Deep fry in very hot oil (400F)
