British-Style Fajitas
Our British-style fajitas are packed full of flavour with the ingredient associated with roast beef - horseradish! These fajitas are served with a dollop of horseradish cream.
Ingredients
  • 450g lean beef mince
  • 1 x 142ml carton soured cream
  • 4 teaspoons creamed horseradish
  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 2 medium onions, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 red pepper, cored, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow pepper, cored, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • Freshly milled black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons garlic salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground paprika
  • 1 little gem lettuce or ½ iceberg lettuce, shredded
  • 6-8 flour tortillas

For tomato salsa:

  • 1 small red onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 225g cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters
  • Juice ½ lime
  • Large handful freshly chopped coriander or flat-leaf parsley
  • Freshly milled black pepper
Method
  1. Prepare the tomato salsa by mixing all the ingredients together and set aside.
  2. In a small bowl mix together the soured cream and horseradish and chill until required.
  3. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the onions and peppers for 5-6 minutes until soft. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Add the mince, garlic salt and paprika and dry fry for 8-10 minutes, breaking down any meaty chunks with the back of a wooden spoon. Spoon off any excess fat. Return the onions and the peppers to the pan with the mince and cook for a further 4-5 minutes. Season to taste.

  5. Meanwhile warm the tortillas under a preheated grill or in the oven for a few minutes and keep warm.
  6. To assemble, lay a tortilla on a plate and spoon the beef mixture in the centre. Top with the horseradish cream, lettuce and salsa. Roll up and serve immediately.
