One of my favorite Mexican dishes is Birria. Birria is traditionally cooked with goat or beef meat,…read moreseasoned with a blend of chilies, spices and herbs. It is slow-cooked until tender and served with a side of consome. Birria, in Spanish was originally meant as "Something of little value". The origin was probably developed because the original recipe was using tougher, less desirable cut of meat, like goat.
I ordered a Marucha Birria Ramen from Taqueria Las Amiguis for lunch! It came with a bowl of Birria consome with ramen noodle. 3 Birria Tacos with cheese, cilantro, onions and lime with hot sauces.
First, take a sip of Birria consome with Ramen as a savory prelude. Next take the Birria taco with cheese, dip the tortilla into the consome for extra flavor. They are topped with lime, cilantro and onions. Some time I paired with a cold beer or aqua fresca. For me, the combination of savory consome, tender meat, crispy tortillas, Ramen and vibrant toppings is also an experience I enjoyed!
The Birria Ramen from Taqueria Las Amiguis is excellent and will order this again and again!
By the way, I make quick Birria Ramen lunch with many variations at home. For the last Birria Ramen, I used a Trader Joe's Beef Birria, Ramen with lime, cilantro and onions. I simply slurp the noodles like nobody's watching. Dunk the tender birria into the consome. Repeat until the bowl is empty!
