The best recipe for carne asada, or beef tacos which are made with grilled steak and served with guacamole, pickled chillies and a fresh coriander salsa. Serve as part of a Mexican-style feast

Ingredients

700g flank, bavette or skirt steak

2 limes, juiced

2 tsp ground cumin

2 cloves garlic, crushed

2 tbsp soft brown sugar

½ clove garlic, chopped

chopped to make 1 tbsp coriander

1 green chilli, seeded and chopped

2 large avocados, ripe

1 lime, juiced

4 tbsp pickled jalapeños, diced

1 large red onion, finely diced

a small bunch coriander, chopped

2 limes, juiced

2 tbsp chipotle Tabasco sauce or chipotle paste

12 corn tortillas

oil

chipotle Tabasco sauce

Method

Marinate the meat with the lime juice, cumin, garlic and sugar. Season and leave for 2 hours or overnight in the fridge.

For the guacamole, crush the garlic, coriander, chilli and some salt with a mortar and pestle. Add the avocados and lime juice. Crush everything together and scrape into a bowl. Mix the salsa ingredients in another bowl and season.

Heat the bbq or a heavy griddle pan. Wipe the marinade from the meat and brush with oil. Season and grill on direct heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the meat. It should get a nice char before you flip it over. Rest under foil for 10 minutes.

Brush the tortillas with a little oil, and warm them through on each side in a heavy griddle pan until they take on the golden char lines. Mould into a taco shape and leave to firm up (you may need to hold them in place using a couple of glasses). Chop the meat into bite-sized pieces and serve with the guacamole, salsa and tortillas.
