How to Make Kate Hudson's Beef Tacos
To make Kurt Russell's favorite tacos, all you need are four basic ingredients: onion, ground beef, cooking oil and tortillas.
Start by sautéing chopped onion and brown ground beef in a large skillet with vegetable oil. To season the beef, use either store bought taco seasoning or a homemade spice blend. In another skillet, Kate instructs you to add a "soaking level of hot high-heat oil", or enough to come up 1/2 inch up the side of the pan. When the oil starts to shimmer, lay a tortilla in the oil and fry until tortilla looks "chewy, not crispy," about 10 seconds. Working quickly, add in a spoonful of ground beef in the center of the tortilla and fold the taco in half to close. Flip over the taco to cook the other side for another 10 seconds. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Now, for the final touch. With these tacos, Hudson says "it's all about the garnish." Serve your beef tacos with cilantro, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, shredded cheese and other top-notch toppings.
