Beef Tacos

Ingredients

• 1 kg beef mince
• 1 small red onion, chopped
• 1 small carrot, peeled, diced
• 1 medium jalapeño, deseeded and diced (if you want more of a kick keep the seeds in)
• 1 tablespoon sea salt
• 5 tablespoon chili powder
• 8 hard taco shells
• ¼ cup cooked corn kernels
• 1 cup tomatoes, diced
• ¼ cup sharp cheddar cheese, diced
• Handful of fresh coriander, chopped roughly
• 4 to 5 lime wedges

Steps

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and cook onion, carrot and garlic; stirring occasionally, until onion is golden brown. Then add salt and chili powder, and cook, for about 2 minutes. Add beef mince and cook, breaking it up with the back of a spoon, until meat is browned, for about 15 minutes.
2. Add in 3/4 cup of tomato (keep the rest for later) and the diced jalapeno pepper. Mix everything through. Reduce heat and simmer until most of liquid evaporates and beef is tender. Remove the cooked beef from the stove and set aside.
3. Take the taco shells and start assembling. Fill each shell with the cooked beef, top with chopped tomatoes, diced cheese, some cooked corn kernels, fresh coriander and a squeeze of lime. You can serve with fresh salsa, guacamole and sour cream. Bon appetite!
