Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 300 grams Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 1 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Lightly coat both sides of the tortillas with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Press each tortilla into the cups of a large muffin tin to create a bowl shape. Bake for 8-10 minutes until crisp and golden. Let cool before removing from the tin.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground beef and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the soy sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the red bell pepper, carrot, cucumber, green onions, and cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using) to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss well to combine.
Add the cooled beef to the vegetable mixture and gently mix until everything is evenly coated.
Spoon the beef and vegetable salad into the tortilla cups, dividing it evenly among the four cups.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
