- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 large poblano pepper roasted and peeled (see directions below)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 - ½ cup water

Instructions
-
Heat oil in a large pan.

Add the onion, beef, and potato. Cook until both are mostly browned (around 5 minutes on medium heat).
-
Add the cumin and oregano and mix in thoroughly.
-
Deseed and chop the poblano pepper and then add it to the potato/meat mixture.
-
Add ¼ cup of water to deglaze the meat and potato bits on the bottom of the pan. Add more water if needed.

Add the cilantro and stir.
-
In a separate pan (I use a large cast iron pan), add the remaining tablespoon of oil. When hot, brown each tortilla on both sides.
-
Fill browned tortillas with beef mixture.

Serve with lime, sour cream, or crema if desired
