In a medium sized saucepan over med.-high heat,
in 2 tbs. oil, cook beef, onion and garlic until beef is well browned,
stirring occasionally. Stir in salt and 1 cup water, heat to boiling.
Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until meat is tender, about 1
1/2 hours.
About 15 minutes before meat is done, heat tortillas. Also heat refried
beans.
When meat is done, with two forks pull meat into shreds. Add chilies,
over medium heat cook until liquid evaporates, about 5 min.
Spread 2 T. refried beans on top each tortilla, top with 1/4 cup
meat mixture, spread lengthwise. Fold each side over mixture, and
both ends under.
In a large skillet, heat 1/2 inch oil. Fry tortilla (I usually do
2 at a time) folded side down, about 1 minute. Turn and repeat. Put
on a paper towel to drain. You can serve with sour cream or salsa.
