Recipe: Tacos

This is my first post so I hope everything goes ok! I love tacos they're fun to make and tasty.

This recipe serves 4

Ingredients:
  • 1 onion
  • 450g pork and beef mince
  • 1tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1tsp chilli powder
  • 1 pepper
  • 1 tin chopped tomatoes( or about 500ml passata if you prefer)
  • pack of taco shells
  • 200g grated cheese
  • 3 tomatoes
  • half a cucumber
  • half a iceberg lettuce
  • salsa to serve
Method:

1. Dice the onion and sweat it off in a pan with a little oil, then add the mince, and spices and brown for about 5 minutes.
2. Chop the pepper and add to the mince, then add the tinned tomatoes,let it simmer for a couple of minutes then turn it right down and leave it to cook for at least 20 minutes, I left mine for about an hour, the longer you leave it the thicker your sauce will be.
3. While the mince is cooking slice the cucumber, lettuce and tomatoes.
4. When the mince is ready heat the tacos up by microwaving them for a minute.
5. Fill the tacos with Salad and mince. top with cheese, serve with salsa and enjoy =)

I thought it would be a good idea to start off with a little hello and introduction to what we're about. We blog about any recipes that have taken our fancy lately, or we've made up to share with everyone else. We aim for it to become a sort of online recipe book where everyone can come and find great recipes! We hope you enjoy. If you have any suggestions, just email us at aprilandkatie@hotmail.co.uk.

Hi, I'm April. I will mostly be posting some really quick and tasty recipes that are easy to make which the whole family can enjoy together. My favourite cusines are Italian, Mexican and Chinese so you will probably see a lot of that around here from me. I also have a personal style blog which can be found here.

Hiiiii I'm Katie (well obviously lol!) I have no idea what I'll be posting just yet as this is my first blog, probably just anything nice that I make. I love food from all around the world, and especially love desserts so I think most of my posts will be good for those with a sweet tooth or who just want a quick easy recipe.
