Directions Vegetarian Taquitos
Directions
-
Heat 1/4 cup oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, squash, carrot, and vegetarian patty. Cook and stir until vegetables are soft and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Add taco seasoning and stir to combine. Set aside and let cool.
Heat 1 inch of oil in another frying pan over medium heat. Dip a corn tortilla into the hot oil with tongs. Wait for 3 seconds, flip, and cook another 3 seconds, remove to paper towels to drain and cool. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Stir Cheddar cheese into the cooled filling mixture. Place 1 1/2 tablespoons of filling down the center of one tortilla and roll up, repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
Place as many taquitos into the hot oil that will fit, seam side-down, using tongs. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to paper towels to drain. Repeat to cook remaining taquitos.
