Ingredients

For the fries:

• 3 potatoes
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt

For the meat:

• 200 g ground beef
• 1 onion
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt
• Pepper

For the cheese sauce:

• 250 ml cream
• 50 g emmental cheese
• 100 g cheddar cheese
• Pepper (optional)
• 4 large wheat tortillas
• 4 tbsp sauce (ketchup, barbecue, mayonnaise...)

Materials

• 1 Panini grill (optional)
• 1 Immersion blender

Preparation

• Prepare the fries: Peel and cut the potatoes into fries, mix them with olive oil and salt, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20 minutes at 220°C (430°F).
• Prepare the meat: Sauté a chopped onion in olive oil, when translucent, add the ground beef, salt, and pepper. Stir occasionally until fully cooked.
• Prepare the cheese sauce: Bring the cream to a boil in a saucepan, add the emmental cheese, and stir until melted. Add the roughly chopped cheddar and pepper. Thicken the sauce and blend.
• Assemble: Place two tortillas slightly overlapping. Spread barbecue sauce (or other) on top, avoiding the edges. Place half of the fries in the center.
• Add half of the cheese sauce and half of the ground meat. Center the ingredients well (forming a rectangle) to make folding easier.
• Fold the edges one by one, starting with the top edge, then the one towards you, and finally the two sides, pressing the ingredients inside.
• Turn the French tacos and cook in a panini grill for 3 minutes (or in a skillet for 3 minutes on each side, starting with the folded side to seal it).
• Do the same with the second French taco, and it's ready!

Observations

You can make smaller portions using a single tortilla. Just divide the ingredients among the 4 and fold the edges towards the center.

You can use any meat and sauce you like.
