Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground beef
  • 1 russet potato (peeled & cut into smallish cubes)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tomato
  • some water
  • salt & pepper (to taste)
  • hard shell tacos
  • Various toppings:
  • Grated cheese
  • hot sauce or salsa

Method

  • Brown the meat over medium high heat. If your meat is particularly fatty, make sure you drain off the excess fat.
  • Once it is cooked or nearly cooked add the cumin, potatoes, and tomatoes.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in a splash of water and cover. The steam will help cook the potatoes. Turn down the heat a little so it does not burn. Stir occasionally to keep the bottom from sticking or burning.
  • Cook until the potatos are cooked through.
  • Heat up your taco shells however you like (if you don't they will just break) then fill with a spoonful or two of the ground beef mixture. Then top with you favorite taco toppings!
