DIRECTIONS
- Drain gravy from roast beef.
- Set aside.
- Fork shred the roast beef.
- Add just enough gravy to moisten. (Too soupy and it will splatter when frying).
- Heat tortillas (4 at a time) in microwave to soften. About 1 minute.
- Place approx 1 1/2 tablespoons of roast beef in center of tortilla (in a line).
- Fold tortilla over and roll to resemble a cigar.
- Fasten together with a toothpick(I found this makes it less likely to come undone when frying).
- Heat about 1/2 inch oil in a frying pan.
- To fry, place tortilla seam side down in hot oil.
- Fry till golden brown.
- Turn over and fry other side.
- Remove to a plate that has been cover with a paper towel to absorb oil.
- Remove toothpicks and sprinkle with salt.
- Serve with your favorite guacamole.
