Carne Asada How to cook?
 
Carne asdada is a very typical taco filling to be found in any nook and
cranny throughout Mexico. It is one of the favorites for an informal get
together, party dance or the like. The meat itself is a small part of the
'meal'. You need to grill the beef then chop it up into small pinching sized
bits that you will use to fill a heated corn tortilla, upon which the eater
will add guacamole, chile verde or colorado or borracha or de arbol, along
with cilantro (coriander) sliced pickled jalapenos, radishes on the side,
etc. It is a traditional 'good-feeling' lets eat and celebrate life basic
ingredient in Mexican lore.
