Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound (454 g) ground beef
- 2 cups (480 ml) cheese blend, shredded
- 5 large tortillas
- 3 tablespoons (45 ml) taco seasoning
- ⅔ cup (160 ml) nacho cheese sauce
- ⅔ cup (160 ml) sour cream
- 4 tostadas or 2 cups (480 ml) tortilla chips
- 1 cup (240 ml) iceberg lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup (240 ml) tomatoes, diced
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) water
Instructions
- Meat Preparation: Brown ground beef in a skillet, drain excess fat, and infuse with taco seasoning and water, allowing the mixture to simmer and develop rich flavors for 5 minutes.
- Tortilla Prep: Warm tortillas in the microwave to enhance flexibility, then slice one tortilla into triangular segments for structural support.
- Layering Technique: Construct the wrap by centering seasoned beef on each tortilla, then strategically layer nacho cheese sauce, tostada shell (or tortilla chips), sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, and shredded cheese.
- Wrapping Method: Position the quartered tortilla piece atop the ingredients, fold the larger tortilla’s edges to create a secure, compact parcel, and lightly brush the exterior with vegetable oil.
- Air Frying Process: Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C), place wrapped crunchwraps seam-side down in the basket, ensuring minimal contact between parcels, and crisp for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden-brown and crunchy.
- Serving: Immediately present the Air Fryer Crunchwrap Supreme, showcasing a mouthwatering fusion of textures and flavors.
Notes
- Seal Tightly: Ensure edges are firmly folded to prevent ingredients from spilling during air frying.
- Oil Brush Technique: Lightly coat exterior with vegetable oil for maximum crispiness and golden-brown color.
- Temperature Precision: Maintain 400°F consistently for even cooking and perfect crunch.
- Avoid Overcrowding: Space Crunchwraps in air fryer basket to allow proper air circulation and crisp formation.
