Halal Beef Tostadas are a delightful fusion of flavors, featuring crispy corn tortillas topped with spiced ground beef, fresh vegetables, and creamy avocado. This dish is not only satisfying but also offers a unique twist to traditional tostadas with a halal twist.

Ingredients

• Corn tortillas - 4
• Ground halal beef - 250 grams
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Onion - 1 small, diced
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Chili powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Tomato - 1 medium, diced
• Lettuce - 1 cup, shredded
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Sour cream - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add minced garlic and ground halal beef to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Stir in cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
4. While the beef cooks, heat another skillet over medium heat and toast the corn tortillas for about 1-2 minutes on each side until crispy.
5. To assemble the tostadas, place each crispy tortilla on a plate. Top each with a generous scoop of the spiced beef mixture.
6. Add diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and avocado slices on top of the beef.
7. Drizzle sour cream over the top and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
8. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an added burst of flavor.
