Step 1

In a bowl, take flour, baking powder, salt, and butter. Mix them well. Now add milk and bring everything together and knead a soft dough. Cover it and keep it aside for 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 2

Once the dough is rested, divide it into 15 equal balls. Take one dough ball, roll it out to a 5-inch circle. Prick the rolled dough a few times with a fork.

Step 3

Heat oil in a pan on a medium heat. Gently slide the dough into the hot oil. It should immediately float and puff. Let the dough fry for 30 seconds on side one. Use tongs to flip the dough over and gently fold the dough in half (like a taco shell). Hold the dough in that shape as it fries for 30 seconds. Roll the shell over to cook evenly. It should be done after about 2 minutes of frying. Remove the shell and let it drain on a paper towel. When it’s fried, it should hold it’s shell shape. Repeat with all the shells.

Step 4

Once the shell has drained, fill them with black beans, sour cream, queso sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and grated cheese. Serve with your favorite hot sauce.
