Mexican beef mince, wrapped in a La Tortilleria corn tortilla with charred corn salsa, guacamole and pickled onion.
1. Slice the onion. Place half (reserve half for the beef) in a small bowl (see notes). Stir in 1 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp vinegar and season with salt. Set aside.
2. Heat frypan over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp oil. Add remaining sliced onion, beef mince, 3 tsp cumin and 3 tsp paprika. Cook for 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tbsp tomato paste, drained beans and 1/2 cup water. Simmer for 5 minutes then season with salt and pepper.
3. Heat a second pan over high heat with 1 tbsp oil. Add corn kernels. Cover and leave to char for 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan to a bowl. Reserve pan (see step 5).
4. Slice chives. Toss with corn and 1/2 lime juice (wedge remaining). Mash avocado together with yoghurt. Roughly tear lettuce leaves. Keep separate.
5. Warm tortillas in a dry frypan according to packet instructions. Keep warm until serving.
6. Assemble tacos at the table with beef filling, pickled onion and toppings. Serve with lime wedges.
NOTES
Use a non-metallic bowl when pickling the onion.
Turn any remaining fillings into Mexican lettuce wraps!
No beef option - beef mince is replaced with chicken mince.
