Cooking Steps
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (see Tip 1).
- Finely chop the onion.
- In a bowl, combine the red wine vinegar with half of the onion and a pinch of salt (see Tip 2).
- Set aside until serving, stirring occasionally.
Tip 1: you can also heat the tortillas in the microwave or in a frying pan if preferred. In this case, no need to use the oven or aluminium foil for this recipe.
Tip 2: you can also add a pinch of sugar if preferred.
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Fry the rest of the onion with half of the bell pepper strips for 2 - 3 minutes (see Tip).
- Add the mince and fry for 3 - 5 minutes, separating it as you do so.
- In the meantime, wrap the tortillas in aluminium foil and heat in the oven for 2 - 3 minutes.
Tip: if you don't like raw bell pepper, fry all of it.
- Dice the tomato and crumble the Greek-style cheese, then transfer both to a bowl.
- Finely chop the coriander and add half of it to the bowl, then mix well to combine.
- Halve and pit the avocado, then remove the skin and slice the flesh.
- Serve everything in separate bowls so as to allow everyone to assemble their own fajitas.
- Use the rest of the bell pepper and coriander as toppings as well, along with the smoky ketchup.
