I was sent some samples of the new Old El Paso Soft Taco kits, now for me, this isn't something I would usually pick up in the supermarket, I don't think I have even tried Taco's, ever! :) But I had to share this with you once I had tried because I loved it! I have only tried the Steak Carne Asada Soft Tacos so far but I am excited to try the Baja Fish too.
They come in kit boxes, which in the Steak Carne, includes:
- 10 soft mini flour tortillas.
- Carne Asada Steak Seasoning.
- Guacamole Seasoning for avocado.
- 2 tbsp water
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 500g steak
- 1 avocado
- 1 lime
- Suggested toppings: 1 onion, 2 tomatoes
How to:
First of all, you will need to marinate the steak, so mix the water, 2 tbsp vegetable oil, the lime juice and the Carne Asada Steak Seasoning in a bowl. Now here I messed up, it said to add the steak whole and marinate but I only got a sliced steak so I added that and allowed it to marinate.
Next, you will need to prepare the guacamole to do this half the avocado and remove the stone and scoop into a bowl, (I find this easiest if you do long slits along the avocado so that it loosens it from the skin), and mash with a fork. Add the Guacamole Seasoning and keep mixing until well combined.
Now to cook the steak! Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium/high heat and add steak. It was now that I chopped up some onion, and plum tomatoes. I also did some halloumi cheese and salad to go with it.
One of the last things to do is to warm the tortillas, I just used the microwave for this but you can use a pan as well. To microwave, poke some holes in the packaging and place the whole pack in the microwave. Heat for around 35-40 seconds on full power. Open the pack, separate the tortillas and keep them covered until ready to serve.
Now sit down with your family and enjoy! :) We definitely did!
Old El Paso has also joined up with Master Chef Winner, Kimberley Wyatt, to show you how to cook the Baja Fish Soft Taco Kit as well, so I have added that below for you!
