Ingredients

  • olive oil, for cooking
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 2 sweet or bell peppers, sliced
  • 7-8 oz (200 g) chestnut or portobello mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 1 pack fajita seasoning
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili, barbecue or fajita sauce

Red Cabbage Slaw

  • 1 wedge red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 handful cilantro leaves (fresh coriander)
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Other Toppings

  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • salsa, to taste

Instructions 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 220C / 430F
  • Prepare your vegetables. Toss them in enough olive oil to lightly coat everything, add the packet of seasoning and the sauce, and mix until everything is well coated. Scatter them into a 9x13 baking dish and place in the oven for 20 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, prep all your toppings. For the cabbage slaw, add the shredded cabbage and a handful of cilantro leaves to a bowl, juice 1/2 lime over the top and add salt and pepper to taste.

  • Take the veggies out of the oven and give everything a good mix through. Place back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes, until the vegetables are charred, reduced and sticky. Remove from the oven and let sit for a few minutes while you warm the tortillas.
  • Lightly fry your tortillas in a frying pan with a small layer of oil, until they are crispy but still malleable. (You can alternatively dry fry them with no oil, I just like to have a good crisp in this recipe)
    8 corn tortillas
  • Serve! Spoon your filling over the tortillas, add toppings and enjoy.
