Authentic Mexican Tacos – How They're Made in Mexico

July 16, 2026FUDI

Norwegian Friday tacos are an institution – but have you tasted tacos as they are actually made in Mexico? Small, double corn tortillas with succulent meat, chopped onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. No cheese, no sour cream, no lettuce. Just pure flavor.

What sets authentic tacos apart

  • Corn tortillas, always two: Small tortillas (10–15 cm) are doubled up so they don't tear – see our corn tortillas.
  • Simple filling: Slow-cooked pork (carnitas), seasoned beef (asada), or grilled chicken.
  • Fresh topping: Finely chopped onion, fresh cilantro, and lime – nothing more.
  • The salsa does the work: A spoonful of good salsa or hot sauce provides acidity and a kick.

Quick recipe: tacos de pollo (4 servings)

  1. Season 600 g chicken thighs with cumin, oregano, garlic, and chili from the spice shelves, and fry over high heat.
  2. Heat the corn tortillas in a dry pan until they are fragrant and soft.
  3. Assemble: two tortillas, meat, onion, cilantro, salsa, lime. Done.

Do you want to make the tortillas yourself?

Mix masa harina with water and a pinch of salt, press flat and cook in a dry pan for one minute per side. Fresh tortillas elevate the taco to a new level.
