We made vegetarian
tacos filled with
crispy halloumi cheese
and a tart, creamy avocado sauce.
Here's how we did it.
Use a store bought
taco seasoning
or even better, mix up your own.
For the sauce add avocados
Mexican crema or sour cream,
fresh cilantro
and lime juice to a food processor.
Whiz until the sauce is
thick and smooth.
Thinly slice your garnishes.
For these,
we especially like radishes
and red cabbage.
Slice the cheese about a quarter inch thick
and season both sides
generously with the taco seasoning.
Dunk each corn tortilla
into cold water
and char in a hot
cast iron skillet.
Keep them warm in a tea towel.
Add a little oil to the skillet
and fry the cheese until it turns
golden brown on both sides.
Those crispy edges
are the best part.
To assemble
add a spoonful of sauce
to a tortilla,
then the cheese,
then top with your garnishes.
You can let everyone
assemble their own taco,
so it's exactly how they like it.
We like to serve them with an extra
sprinkle of chopped cilantro
and a squeeze of lime.
It's an easy, quick
vegetarian dinner
that's sure to please
even your pickiest guests.
