Quorn and Fruit Chilli Tacos’
Ingredients
Method
Method
Begin by preparing the salsa. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and cover with clingfilm. The flavours will develop and deepen while the chilli for the tacos is cooking.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the onions. Cook for five minutes until soft and golden. Add the garlic and chilli and cook for a further five minutes, then stir in the Quorn and lentils and allow to cook for five minutes.
Add the tomato sauce, apple and pear and simmer for 45 minutes, adding a little water if required. Once tender add the cumin, smoked paprika and vegetable fonds.
To serve, warm the taco shells for two minutes in a pre-heated oven.
Divide the shredded lettuce among the shells then fill with the chilli. Top as desired: we suggest tomato salsa, a teaspoon of sour cream and a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese.
