A Mexican wrap like this propels to the top of the list. They are great as snack or a light lunch, fab party food and perfect solution when you have unexpected guests :)
I discovered this wonderful recipe book "Britain's Favourite Food" which is a compilation of various recipes which are handed down from generations.
Ingredients
2 Red peppers
4 good quality pork or vegetarian sausages or 250 gms cooked shredded chicken
300 gms canned red beans drained, rinsed and drained again
4 large tomato chopped
1 large onion chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp basil
4 large wheat tortillas or corn tortillas
salt and pepper
To serve
Slices of tomato
Soured cream
Method
1. Preheat pan to a medium. Place the red peppers on the pan and cook for 10 minutes, turning frequently untill blackened and blistered all over. Transfer to a polythene bag and leave for 10 minutes untill cool enough to handle.
2. Brown the sausages/chicken on the pan for 10-12 minutes untill cooked right through. While sausages/chicken are cooking, place kidney beans, tomatoes, onion, garlic, lime juice and basil in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper and mix well untill combined.
3. When peppers are cool enough to handle, peel off their skins with your fingers. Halve and de-seed, then cut the flesh to small pieces. Add the pepper to kidney bean mixture. About 1 minute before the meat is ready warm the tortillas in a lightly greased non stick frying pan or microwave according to instructions.
4. Remove the sausages from pan and cut to slices. Fill tortillas with sausage slices/chicken pieces, the kidney bean salsa and serve with sour cream
Happy Cooking!
