Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 pounds flank steak -- * see note
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 cups hot water
3 yellow onions
1 large bell pepper
1 jalapeno pepper -- chopped
2 tomatoes -- peeled and chopped
10 large eggs
2 cups cheddar cheese -- shredded
8 flour tortillas

* Use another cut of meat if flank steak is unavailable.
1. To prepare steak, cut into 3-4 pieces and sprinkle with the salt and
pepper. Heat a very heavy pan with tight fitting lid. Add 1 tablespoon oil
and brown the meat on each side.
2. Add hot water and cover tightly. Simmer on low heat for 2 to 2-1/2
hours or until meat shreds easily. Add more water during cooking if
necessary. When meat is tender, shred into small bite-sized pieces.
3. Cut the onions into thin slices, separate the slices into individual
rings. Julienne the green pepper. Mince the jalapeno pepper (use a canned
one if necesssary).
4. In a large heavy skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil; add the onions and
green peppers. Saute until onions are translucent and limp. Add the chopped
fresh tomato and the minced jalapeno and continue cooking for 3 minutes
more.
5. Add the shredded meat, 10 eggs which have been lightly beaten, and
the shredded cheese. Proceed as though you were scrambling eggs.
6. Warm the flour tortillas while cooking the filling, or quickly run
each tortilla over the flame on a gas stove, just to soften. Fill each
tortilla with 1/8th of the mixture. Roll the tortillas by turning one side
up and folding the edges inward. Wrap the lower third in foil or waxed
paper and serve immediately.
