Ingredients
- 500 g minced beef 5%
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp garlic granules
- 8 small soft taco tortillas
- Lime wedges
For the sauce:
- 6 tbsp 0% fat Greek yoghurt
- Juice of 2 limes
- 2 tsp chipotle paste
For the toppings:
- 120 g drained canned sweetcorn
- 2 large tomatoes chopped
- 1 red onion finely chopped
- 2 avocado peeled, pitted and chopped
- Lettuce shredded
- 80 g feta crumbled
Instructions
- Put the minced beef in a mixing bowl with the paprika, garlic granules, salt and pepper. Mix well, then divide into 4 equal-sized balls.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add a beef ball to the pan, then press a tortilla directly on top. Use a spatula to smash it down flat so the beef spreads under the tortilla.
- Cook until the beef is crispy and browned. Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes to toast the tortilla. Repeat for the rest.
- While the tacos are cooking, mix the yoghurt sauce ingredients together in a bowl.
- Spread some yoghurt sauce over the beef side of each taco, then top with sweetcorn, tomato, onion, avocado, lettuce, feta and coriander. Finish with a squeeze of lime and serve.
