Ingredients

  • 1 pound cooked birria local is best but many grocery stores sell this too
  • 2 cups birria cooking liquid aka consome
  • 8 Oaxaca cheese shredded by hand
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1 large white onion finely chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro finely chopped

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet or griddle. Divide the birria into 3 inch round on the skillet, you may need to work in batches. Pour a little consome on to the beef to help reheat and steam the birria.
  • Top each round with Oaxaca cheese and cook until melted.
  • Dip tortillas in the consome and top the birria mounds with a tortilla each before flipping. Cook until the tortilla begins to crisp, then top each taco with onions and cilantro and fold to close.
