Ingredients
  • 1 T Fustini’s Aji Verde EVOO
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • ½ c white onion- finely minced

  • 1 Jalapeño - seeded and minced
  • ¼ c pickled cactus, chopped
  • 4 tomatillos- husked, washed, diced
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Pinch ground cumin
  • Pinch ground coriander
Steps
  1. Heat oil in large skillet over moderate heat. Add beef and brown, stirring often until all liquid is gone. Cook about 25 to 30 minutes. Add onion, garlic and jalapeño and cook for several minutes, stirring often. Add cactus and tomatillos, turn heat to low and cook, stirring often, until tomatillos  are fully cooked and broken down - 20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, cumin and coriander and use immediately.

  3. Chop all veggies.  Heat pressure cooker to sauté. Spray lightly with EVOO. Add onions and let them begin to sweat. Add the flavored oil. Add the meat and break it up as it starts to cook and release moisture. No need to cook through.  Add remaining ingredients to the pot, stir, and seal. Cook on HP for 10 min. Allow 5 min NPR or longer.
  4. When all pressure is released remove lid and stir to break up meat as needed. Taste and reseason with all spices.
  5. Boil until all liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes, stirring periodically.
  6. Tortilla shells:  Warm tortillas between damp paper towels for 15 seconds in microwave, or until pliable.  Gently shape into a small oven-safe container to form a bowl. Preheat airfryer for 3 minutes at 360 F. Remove basket and place tortillas into fryer. Cook 3 minutes. Remove from fryer. Remove the tortillas from their holders and place upside down in fryer to brown and crisp the bottoms. Cook 1 to 2 more minutes.
