Ingredients

  • 350g Quorn Meat Free Mince
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (Quorn just needs to be added to the sauce, so the recipe requires about 50% less oil than you would usually use)
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Method

  2. Add the green pepper, tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato puree and oregano. Season to taste with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper and stir in the coriander. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Prepare the garnishes by mixing together the yoghurt, spring onions, cucumber and coriander and setting aside to chill until required.
  4. Slice the tomatoes and shred the iceburg lettuce, set aside until required for garnishing.
  5. Heat the tacos in a warm oven or under the grill for 3 minutes.
