Pan Fried Beef Tortillas with Mint Yoghurt

Ingredients:

Beef Tortillas

  • 500g Premium Beef Mince
  • ½ small brown onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 4 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 12-15 small tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 x punnet cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • ½ cucumber, halved, thinly sliced
  • 75g feta cheese, crumbled
  • Good handful of mint leaves to serve
  • Good handful of roughly chopped parsley to serve

Mint Yoghurt

  • 3/4 cup Greek yoghurt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped mint leaves

Method:

Put the mince, onion, garlic, lemon zest and parmesan cheese into a bowl, season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and mix well to combine (mixing with clean hands can sometimes be easier here).

Roll the mixture into balls a little bigger than a golf ball. Take a ball of the mince and press it out across the tortilla, right to the edges.
 
Pre-heat a heavy-bottomed frying pan over a medium-high heat. Drizzle in the olive oil and once hot, put the tortilla onto the pan, mince-side-down and cook for a minute or two, or until the meat is browned. Flip, then cook for a further minute before removing from the pan. Keep warm in a warm oven and repeat with the remaining tortillas and mince.

Mix the yoghurt, garlic, sea salt, lemon zest and mint and put into a small serving bowl.

Pile the tortillas onto a serving plate.

Put the red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, herbs and feta onto a platter and put these in the centre of the table along with the yoghurt and let your guests build their own tortillas.
