- 1 Heat 1/4 cup oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, squash, carrot, and vegetarian patty. Cook and stir until vegetables are soft and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Add taco seasoning and stir to combine. Set aside and let cool.
- 2 Heat 1 inch of oil in another frying pan over medium heat. Dip a corn tortilla into the hot oil with tongs. Wait for 3 seconds, flip, and cook another 3 seconds; remove to paper towels to drain and cool. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- 3 Stir Cheddar cheese into the cooled filling mixture. Place 1 1/2 tablespoons of filling down the center of one tortilla and roll up; repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
- 4 Place as many taquitos into the hot oil that will fit, seam side-down, using tongs. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to paper towels to drain. Repeat to cook remaining taquitos.
