MAKING TACOS

  • Heat a griddle/non-stick frying pan with some spray oil.
  • When smoking hot, add the marinated mushroom beef and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the meat is cooked through. Stir occasionally. Its ok if its a bit charred at the ends. Turn the heat to medium if needed.
  • Transfer the meat in a bowl and lightly toast the taco wraps in the same griddle/pan
  • Place a taco on a flat surface, top it with some mushroom meat, and rest of the filling ingredients in the middle, and enjoy.

*You can replace the mushroom beef with mushrooms. Slice 250g of mushrooms and follow the rest of the recipe. The cooking time for mushrooms should be between 5-8min. on high-med heat or until most of the moisture evaporates. Its ok if they get a little charred/crisp.
