Cooking steps
-
1
Lay out the flour tortillas and spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each. TikTok viral tip: spread all the way to the edge for those dramatic saucy bites.
-
2
Sprinkle half the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauced tortillas, then add a generous layer of shredded birria beef. Top with the remaining cheese.
-
3
Roll up each tortilla tightly, keeping the fillings inside, and set aside seam-side down. Viral hack: pressing the seam helps it hold better when frying.
-
4
Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place roll-ups seam-side down and cook until crispy and golden, about 2–3 minutes per side; don’t rush this part for maximum cheese pull factor.
-
5
Remove roll-ups and immediately sprinkle with chopped cilantro and diced red onion for that signature birria flair. Slice and serve hot with bowls of warm birria consommé for dipping and fresh lime wedges on the side.
