Now, add the tomato paste and beef stock or broth, then give them a good mix until uniform, and add some chopped cilantro. Give them a final mix until well combined, then turn off the heat, and set it aside. Lay a tortilla on a flat surface, spread some cheese on one side, then top it with a few scoops of the meat mixture followed by more cheese, and fold the tortilla over. Place each tortilla in a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, then bake them in a preheated oven at 200°C or 392°F for about 5 to 7 minutes or pan fry them for about 2 minutes per side.
