Fish Tacos

A versatile dish the family will love

Fish Tacos- NEW RECIPE
.
👩‍🍳This is a great family meal, everyone sits around the table and assembles their dinner into crunchy taco shells.
.
🤔Did you know, we should eat at least two portions of fish a week, of which one is oily fish. This recipe is so versatile – you can use salmon, mackerel, cod, hake, prawns or tinned fish like @shinestuna tuna, mackerel or sardines.
.
I buy the taco shells from Avoca, they are gluten free too if you have an intolerance.
.
✅I then make an Asian style Coleslaw – TOP TIP prepare the vegetables, cover with wet kitchen paper but don’t dress it until you want to eat it, that way it will stay fresh in the fridge for days.
.
👩‍🍳I then slice some avocado and make a simple salsa, provide mayo, relish & pomegranate seeds for everyone to add what they like to their tacos.
.
✅This is a lovely quick midweek meal for all the family to share around the table!
