How to Make Budget beef tacos

Preparation time:

less than 30 mins

Cooking time:

10 to 30 mins

Serves:

Serves 4–6 (suitable for a family of 6)

Ingredients

  • 400–500g/14oz–1lb 2oz beef mince
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 large pepper
  • 2 tbsp fajita seasoning
  • 400g tin red kidney beans
  • 150g/5½oz frozen sweetcorn
  • 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 8 soft tortilla wraps
  • 1 small iceberg lettuce
  • 200ml/7fl oz soured cream
  • ground black pepper

Method

  1. Put the beef, onion and pepper in a wide-based saucepan, large deep frying pan or sauté pan and fry for 5 minutes over a medium-high heat, stirring and squishing the beef to break up the mince. (There is no need to add oil unless your mince is extra lean.)

  2. Sprinkle over the spices, season with lots of ground black pepper and cook for a minute more, stirring. Add the beans (including the liquid from the tin), sweetcorn and ketchup. Cook together for 3–4 minutes or until hot, stirring regularly.

  3. To serve, heat the tortillas according to the pack instructions (a microwave works well for this). Add lettuce to the warm tortilla wraps, top with mince and some soured cream and roll up to eat.
