Smashed Bahn Mi Beef Tacos
/Recipe by Courtney Roulston
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
500g Coles Graze Grass Fed beef mince
1 tbs fresh ginger, finely chopped
2 tbs fish sauce
2 spring onions, white parts finely sliced, green tops cut into lengths
6 small flour tortillas
4 tbs Kewpie mayonnaise
1 tsp chilli crunch oil
1 Lebanese cucumber, cut into matchsticks
1 cup coriander sprigs
2 carrots, peeled, cut into julienne
2 tbs rice wine vinegar
Method
To pickle the carrots, place them into a non-reactive bowl and toss through 1 tsp sea salt. Add the vinegar and set aside to pickle.
Place the beef mince into a large mixing bowl with the ginger, fish sauce, white parts of the spring onion and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to combine. Divide the mince into 6 portions and spread each portion onto one side of the tortillas.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan or BBQ plate over medium heat. Cook the tortillas meat-side down for 3 minutes, or until caramelised. Turn over and cook for a further minute on the second side.
Mix the mayonnaise and chilli oil in a small bowl, then spoon a little over each tortilla. Arrange onto a serving platter and top with drained pickled carrot, cucumber, green spring onion and coriander before serving.
