REC: Tacos de Tripa
I found this recipe delicious and low-carb.
-= Exported from BigOven =- Tacos de Tripa (Tripe Tacos) Mexican "Street Stall" style tacos. Warm tortillas with a crispy, spicy filling. Recipe By: Pete & Peggy Romfh Serving Size: 8 Cuisine: Mexican Main Ingredient: Tripe Categories: Low Sugar, Diabetic, Atkins-Friendly, Low Carb, Fry, Simple - Easy, Snacks, Sandwiches, Hors dOeuvres, Brunch -= Ingredients =- 1 pound Tripe ; - beef or pork 1 large Onion ; - Finely chopped 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt ; - to taste 2 tablespoons Olive oil 1/2 cup Salsa ; - medium or hot (to taste) 4 large Low Carb tortillas ; - cut in 1/2 1 cup Cabbage ; - finely shredded 1/4 cup Radishes ; - finely sliced 1/4 cup Cilantro ; - for garnish -= Instructions =- Thoroughly clean and rinse the tripe. Chop it into small (app 3/8 inch) pieces and drop it into boiling water. Allow this to simmer for 20 - 30 minutes while you assemble and prep the other ingredients. When the tripe is quite tender drain it and allow it to dry a bin on some paper towels. Heat one tablespoon of oil in a frying pan then add the tripe, allowing it to brown a bit then turning down the heat a bit and let it continue cooking until it starts to get crispy. Reduce the heat to low and keep warm. In another pan sauté the onions in a tablespoon of oil until they are softened and starting to brown. Then add 1/2 of the salsa and the crispy tripe. Adjust the seasoning with salt and additional salsa as needed. Turn each 1/2 tortilla into a cone shape and spoon in some of the meat-onion mixture. Top with some cabbage, radish slices, and cilantro. Serve hot. This tastes a LOT better hot than cold (or even warm). Each (1/2 tortilla) serving contains an estimated: Cals: 139, FatCals: 65, TotFat: 7g SatFat: 1g, PolyFat: 2g, MonoFat 4g Chol: 54mg, Na: 336mg, K: 212mg TotCarbs: 13g, Fiber: 8g, Sugars: 2g NetCarbs: 4g, Protein: 13g ** Recipe, with photo, at: http://www.bigoven.com/recipe161179 ** ** Easy recipe software.
