Method

1. Finely slice the onion and the bell peppers into thin strips.
2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sauté the onion for 3 minutes.
3. Add the lean beef mince and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon until browned.
4. Stir in the peppers, cumin, and paprika, then cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
5. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry pan for 30 seconds per side.
6. Fill each tortilla with the meat mixture, top with diced avocado, and finish with a squeeze of lime juice.

Tips

• For extra crunch, briefly toast the tortillas until they show small charred spots.
• Store the meat and vegetables in the fridge for up to 2 days; assemble just before eating.
