Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoon garlic-infused oil
  • 1 lbs ground lean beef
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste*
  • 1 ½ tablespoon low FODMAP taco seasoning*

To make the taco shells

  • 8 small gluten-free or corn tortillas
  • ⅓ cup light cooking oil

Additions:

  • lactose-free sour cream
  • cheddar cheese
  • green parts of spring onion
  • cilantro
  • lime juice

Instructions
 

To make the taco filling:

  • Heat the garlic-infused oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Once heated through, add the ground beef and cook, breaking up into pieces, until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the low FODMAP taco seasoning and mix well. Add the tomato paste and water. Let it boil for 5 to 6 minutes. Then remove from the heat.

Make the taco shells (you can skip this step if using store-bought taco shells)

  • Line the baking sheet with paper towels. Place a medium/large skillet over medium heat and add the light cooking oil.
  • Once the oil is hot (350 ̊F on the thermometer), carefully place the tortilla and fry for 12-15 seconds until golden brown on one side. Flip over and use tongs to immediately fold in half. Fry for another 10-12 seconds per side or until golden brown, then use tongs to transfer the taco shell to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Immediately sprinkle the taco shells lightly with kosher salt. If you open them a little and set them upside down to cool and drain on paper towels, they will stay open a little longer, making filling easier and you won't need a taco stand. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until all the shells are fried.

Assemble the tacos

  • Fill the tacos with the meat filling and add your favorite toppings, I like adding cheddar cheese, lactose-free sour cream, a drizzle of lime, cilantro, and the green parts of spring onions

Notes

*You can replace tomato paste with tomato sauce. For every 1 tablespoon of tomato paste needed, use 3 tablespoons of tomato puree or sauce.
*I like using this easy homemade Low FODMAP taco seasoning, which requires only 8 simple spices that you most likely have in your pantry. However, you can also use a store-bought one such as Smoke n Sanity Taco Seasoning
