Instructions

Get Prepped
1
  • Preheat your oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 
  • Halve and deseed the bell pepper. Chop into 1cm chunks. 
  • Drain and rinse the corn in a sieve. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion
  • Halve the chilli and discard the core and seeds. Finely chop half (double for 4p).

TIP: If you want to avoid turning on your oven you can dry-fry the tortillas in a pan instead.

Char the Veg
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When the pan is hot, add the onion, pepper, corn and chopped chilli (use less if you don't like spice). 
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the veg is dark golden brown, 4-5 mins.

TIP: Char in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Cook the Turkey
3
  • Add the turkey, garlic and Central American spice with a drizzle of oil if necessary.
  • Fry until browned on the outside, breaking it up as it cooks, 3-4 mins.
  • Add tomato paste, ½ tsp sugar and 25ml of water (double both for 4p). Simmer for 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add a splash more water to loosen if required.
Warm the Tortillas
4
  • Meanwhile, pop the tortillas in the oven to warm, 1-2 mins.
  • Roughly trim and thinly slice the scallion.
Mix the Creme Fraiche
5
  • Zest and quarter the lime.
  • In a small bowl, stir together creme fraiche and lime zest.
  • Season to taste with saltpepper and lime juice.
Assemble and Serve
6
  • Divide the tortillas between plates, then top with turkey taco filling.
  • Dollop on a helping of zesty creme fraiche.
  • Sprinkle with scallion and serve remaining lime wedges alongside.
