topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

    Taco

  • 1 package (340-400 g) of soybeans or any minced meat substitute
  • 5-6 tbsp. l. coconut oil
  • 1 cup finely diced onion
  • 2 tbsp. sweet paprika
  • 1 tbsp. l. ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp granulated garlic
  • 2 tsp ancho chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup frozen grilled corn
  • 8 6-inch (15 cm) diameter corn tortillas, heated
  • Jicama and Cilantro Coleslaw, recipe below
  • 4 radishes, thinly sliced
  • Lime wedges, for serving

    Coleslaw with jicama and cilantro

  • 3 tbsp. crème fraîche
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • Juice of 1 lemon (1-2 tbsp)
  • 1 cup shredded white cabbage
  • 1 cup jicama, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation:

  1. Heat 5 tablespoons of coconut oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the ground beef substitute and stir to coat and heat through, adding more oil as needed to prevent sticking.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, cumin, granulated garlic, ancho chili powder, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, oregano, and cinnamon. Stir in 3 tablespoons water and vinegar. Pour the spice mixture over the meat substitute and stir to distribute evenly. Add the corn. Continue to cook until heated through, 10-15 minutes. If the mixture begins to stick, add a little more water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
  3. Spoon a little filling onto each tortilla and top with a few radish slices and the jicama-cilantro coleslaw. Serve with lime wedges.

  4. To reheat tortillas for serving, stack them, wrap the stack in damp paper towels or a damp kitchen towel, then wrap in plastic wrap or a microwave-safe bag (keep the bag open to allow steam to escape). Microwave for about 1 minute.
