Chicken & JALAPEÑO
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 [4-5]|#7DA0D7 minutes (shifting occasionally). During the final 1-2 minutes, add the NOMU rub. Place in a bowl and combine with the sour cream, the spring onion whites, the jalapeños (to taste), and season.

Place the tortillas in a single layer on a chopping board. Place 1-2 tbsp of the Chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla in a straight line from top to bottom (you may have some chicken filling left over!). Roll up each tortilla tightly so that it resembles a cylinder with the filling inside. Place on a lightly greased baking tray in a single layer, fold-side down. Pop in the oven and bake until golden and starting to crisp, 10-12 minutes.
Corn SALAD
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and place in a bowl. Toss with the peppers, ½ the coriander, the spring onion greens, the salad leaves, and season.
