instructions
    1

    Start by finely chopping the onion and garlic.

    2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

    3

    Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 3 to 5 minutes until they are translucent.

    4

    Cut the beef into small pieces and add to the skillet. Cook for about 10 to 15 minutes until the beef is browned on all sides.

    5

    Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of cumin, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes.

    6

    While the beef is cooking, prepare the apple sauce. Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces.

    7

    In a separate saucepan, cook the chopped apples over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes until they soften.

    8

    Mash the apples gently with a fork to create a sauce. You can add a pinch of cinnamon if desired.

    9

    Once the beef is ready, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 1 minute on each side.

    10

    To assemble, place some of the beef mixture on each tortilla, top with a spoonful of apple sauce, and garnish with chopped cilantro if using.
