I tried your way last night (same tortillas and oil) and it was a hit last night with hubby, picky 4 year old and myself! So easy! And so effective! Thank you...i loved these taco shells.
Quisha Kinlaw Absolutely thrilled that you, your hubby and a picky 4 year old enjoyed our taco shell recipe! Brought a huge smile to my face! Thanks for sharing! What did you put in them?
Molé Mama Ground Turkey, sour cream, shredded Romain w, tomatoes and shredded 4 cheese blend. Daughter had just the turkey and cheese. So delicious that we’re having it again tonight!!😁
Quisha Kinlaw Sounds delicious! And so fabulous that you are enjoying it again! Absolutely the best when others enjoy the recipes my mama taught me! Have a wonderful weekend! Happy cooking!
Hey Diana, these would be sooo good! I love crunchy shells rather than soft. Good to know about the corn oil💛Thanks again for the hot oil temp and inspiration💚katie PS I am also happy that you mention your mama. 💞
Hola Katie😘 Thanks so much for watching our crunchy tacos recipe! I hope you decide to make them! They are so easy and I’m so grateful that my mama taught me how to make them😘 Happy cooking amiga💗
Hola Ohm, the shells don't usually break. Sometimes if you get them too well done they will. I'll be making them live via Facebook live on Friday for a special holiday show. Reach out if you want the show details and I'll make sure and over some tips on how not to break them. Hope this helps and thanks so much for watching my video :)
You do it by not making them flat like she does. Use the tongs to hold them open while frying. P.S. mole mama olive oil gives these shells a FANTASTIC flavor.
Agreed. We filmed this video a long time ago. I recently had a live cooking event if you go to this video - ua-cam.com/video/wBSeldS_HDw/v-deo.html around 16.06, you can see me stuffing the tacos with hamburger meat. I'll be shooting another video soon and I'll make sure I get a close up for you. I hope this helps. Please reach out if you need help. Happy Cooking, Molé Mama
what would be the biggest Taco shell possible to make? Like 10 inches large tortillia wrappers? Would it be able to keep its structure. and not break appart? even when filling it to the top?
Hi There, You can use flour tortillas. I've used 10 inches before and they work well. The trick is the oil must be cooler and you need to turn them quickly because they are going to get crunchy and golden brown much faster than corn. And can burn easily! Make sure the tortillas are room temperture when you start frying! Some of my family prefers the taste of the flour tortillas tacos. Hope this helps. Please reach out with any other questions. Happy cooking. Molé Mama
Hola Sara, They don't crack if you gently open them. I've had a few break, but I make lots of tacos. The trick is to make your shells with room temperature tortillas. Happy cooking!
¡Hola Buenos dias Mama! ¿Como esta? ¡Gracias Molé Mama yo gusto muy sabroso! Güero from Texas misplaced in east Tennessee to take care of my elderly parents. In my younger days (my 20s during the 1980s) when I lived in SoCal I would go down to Ensenada and San Felipe whenever I could. Back home in Texas it was a much farther trip to the border from Amarillo so didn't get to go as often as I would have liked. I always loved Mexico and her people which as you know are well represented in California and Texas. I've been here (TN) 5 years now and really have been missing home. I am more of a Barbeque cook but have found my homesickness is showing up in my hunger now as well; I know weird huh? Right now I'm working on my 3rd batch of shredded beef; but I haven't got the taco shells down, till now. Thank you so very much, I refuse to buy any more stale off the shelf. I've been visiting here (TN) all my life and it's always been kind of pale 😉 around here. But in the past several years more and more of my brown cousins have made it up here. I'm not fluent but understand and speak more than a little; I have fun when I'm somewhere and I can overhear some maybe commenting about "the white boy", and I'll look at them all innocent, ¿quien yo? Tickles me every time! Thank you again for sharing your taco goodness and letting me share some of my story. 👍 Gracias, Rich Barnhart
Capt. Rich Hola Rich! I love your story and thrilled that you’ve mastered crunchy tacos🌮🌮 Thank you for sharing! And so nice of you to have moved to care for your parents! Happy Cooking and keep sharing your taco goodness in TN! Be well! Molé Mama
Thank you Jimmy. Use medium heat. Start frying as soon as your wood spoon is surrounded by oil bubbles. As you continue, you may need to lower the heat a little. Hope this helps! Be well! Happy cooking😋
Hi Shannon, excellent news. It's wonderful that you found an oil that supports your health and still tastes yummy! Thanks for sharing and happy cooking!
Hola Raquel, keep each side in the oil for just a couple of minutes, until they are golden brown. It depends on how hot your oil is and how crunchy you want your shells. Hope this helps! Happy Cooking! Be well, Molé Mama
Funny, I used flour tortillas and they just bubbled up. Still tasted great, but they were hard to fry. I prefer corn, but my husband prefers flour. So next time, I'll use corn. Thank you for the info.!
I fried the corn tortillas pretty much this way tonight. All I had was peanut oil. They were kind of soggy and heavy with oil - not crunchy. The oil was quite hot but the tortillas came straight out of the fridge. Any suggestions?
Alan Lane Hi There, So a couple of things. It’s best for the tortillas to be room temperature and the oil needs to be really hot. Did you use the wood spoon test? And I’ve never used peanut oil to make them before, so not sure if that contributed to the sogginess. I hope they turn out next time. Be well, Molé Mama
Great video !!! When I first saw your UA-cam video I thought to myself "Who is this white lady trying to make tacos !!! Then I heard your beautiful voice and was like "Dang" she's Latina !!! Lol. Your taco shells look amazing !!! Thank you !!!

Hi Mike, use medium/high heat. Use a wooden spoon test in my video to identify when the oil is hot enough to start frying. Please reach out with any other questions. Happy cooking😋
Plorion. Ok so if the corn chips were warm, fried and not as crunchy as a chip, that’s what a taco shell tastes like. I hope you get to try them someday!
I found day-old tortillas work best because they have less moisture and will get crunchy faster. If fresh, let them sit out in a single layer uncovered for a while before frying.
Great question, I’ve never tried it. But if you do, please let me know how it goes. I have recently started using avocado oil for all my tacos and it’s an awesome upgrade, healthier and tastes great. Thank you for contacting us. Happy Cooking!
Molé Mama those are labeled as small in South Africa, where I’m from, we have some that are a lot bigger, perfect for salad wraps or large burritos. Not so much for tacos, then again Mexican food isn’t that popular in South Africa since we have more Indian people.
Jaunii Wolf So interesting Jaunii. Thanks for sharing. I haven’t been to South Africa yet, I hope to visit some day. You can make these with larger flour tortillas too you just need to keep a close eye on them because they cook super fast and burn easily. One of our followers from Croatia made them with the larger tortillas recently and said her family loved them. Thanks again for sharing! Happy cooking!
Hi Maggie, Sorry to hear this. Most likely, you didn't fry them long enough. Do you get the oil hot? Did you try the wood spoon test? Can you send your steps and happy to help you sort this out so you can enjoy crunchy tacos soon. All the best! Happy Cooking! Molé Mama
I started on a medium high heat and put the tortilla in and it started to bubble around it, i waited till the tortilla had bubbles inside it then folded them into the shape they needed and let them fry until they were a darker yellow. Maybe I didn’t have the heat high enough or fry them long enough.
Need to see those stuffed on camera. They were tightly shut after frying and I want to see them not crack as you fill them up with all those ingredients.
I'm from southern California and moved to Albuquerque NM last year. I've struggled to find a restaurant (or hole in the wall even) that makes ground beef, or potato hard tacos. Please help! Most places here offer soft tacos only, or cheap, boxed type hard shell tacos with shredded beef or chicken only! I AM OBSESSED WITH (and miss) REALLY GREAT, SLIGHTLY GREASY, HARD SHELL TACOS WITH BEEF, CHICKEN, OR POTATO. Most places just make "red or green" crappy shell tacos without use of cheese, onion, lettuce, some sauce (or pico di gallo) with potato....nobody does it here...help!
Brandy Morgan Hola Brandy, sorry I spent time in Albuquerque and have never found any! They are super easy to make. If you decide to make them reach out with any questions! And Duran’s pharmacy has outstanding flour tortillas and they serve them with melted butter!!!! So delicious! Happy cooking😋
You have to hold them shells open with the tongs as they fry if you want to have room for fillings! That’s why you skipped the filling process. Otherwise you are a doll!!!
Snoody Snoody I put my stove on medium heat and use a wooden spoon to test the oil. When the oil bubbles around the spoon it's ready. It's a technique that a dear chef friend of mine taught me. Hope this helps and happy cooking! Molè Mama
Every time I make my shells I basically just fry them flat and then once I pull them out of the hot oil THEN I fold them in half. But I like your way of doing it better. I don’t know why it never occurred to me to fry them while folded?? Lol Maybe because I’m an inexperienced white girl? 😂
kawaii cat Yes! But flour tortillas are going to cook super fast and easy to burn, so watch closely and may need to lower the heat. Let me know how it goes!

Hi Jason,
Here's the link to the beef filling that's a family favorite - ua-cam.com/video/6yWU-nxmKf4/v-deo.html
Chicken, ground turkey, roasted veggies and mashed potatoes are also super yummy in our crunchy tacos!
Happy cooking!
Be well.

I do speak Spanish with a California accent! I was born in the US! But I sure love the beautiful Spanish language 🙏🏽💗
