Tacos
Heat a frying pan and dip a corn tortilla into the broth and place it onto the hot pan. Sprinkle a layer of shredded meat and then a layer of grated cheese. Close the taco and cook gently to melt the cheese and crisp up the shell. Repeat for all the tacos and enjoy dipped in the gorgeous broth. Garnish with Coriander if you wish.
Ramen
No Tacos? No problem! The sauce is delicious with noodles. Boil your noodles, once cooked, drain the water and pop them into a bowl, ladle the Birria sauce and beef onto the noodles and enjoy! Sprinkle a little diced onion and coriander if you are feeling extra fancy.
