IN A PICKLE
Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a bowl, add the juice of 1 lime wedge, lime zest, 5ml of oil and 1 tsp of a sweetener of choice. Mix until combined and the sweetener has dissolved. Toss through the sliced radish and white spring onion slices. Season to taste and set aside to pickle.
CHARRED TOMS
Spread the halved baby tomatoes and the drained chickpeas on a roasting tray in a single layer. Coat in oil and seasoning. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until blistered and beginning to burst, shifting halfway.
TANGY TOPPING
In a bowl, combine the guacamole, the juice of 1 lime wedge, ½ the chopped coriander, and seasoning.
DO YOU GET OUT MUSH?
Place a pan on a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the quartered mushrooms and fry for 4–5 minutes until browned and starting to crisp, shifting occasionally. In the final minute, add the paprika and the grated garlic. On completion, remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
TASTY TORTS
Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium heat. When hot, toast the tortillas for 30 seconds per side until warmed and lightly crisped. Alternatively, stack on a plate with damp paper towel in between each and microwave for 30 seconds. Once heated, stack under a dry tea towel to stop them from getting cold or drying out.
TACO NIGHT
Lay down the toasted tortillas. Layer with the shredded leaves and mushrooms. Top with charred tomatoes and chickpeas. Spoon over pickled radish, spring onion and dollops of guacamole. Garnish with the green spring onion slices, and the remaining chopped coriander. Generously squeeze over some lime juice. Wowzers, Chef!
