For this recipe, I paired them with with a herby lamb steak, crisp carrot, cucumber, and red cabbage slaw, creamy guacamole, a dollop of coconut yogurt and sprinkle of fresh mint.

Ingredients (per 1 portion):

For the tortillas:

• 100g cassava flour

• 2 tbsp coconut yogurt

• drizzle of olive oil

• pinch of salt

For the lamb steak:

• 1 lamb steak

• drizzle of olive oil

• 1 clove garlic - minced

• 1 sprig/tsp fresh rosemary

• 1 tsp fresh thyme

For the slaw:

• 1/2 carrot - julienned or grated

• 1/4 red cabbage - finely sliced or shredded

• 1/4 cucumber - smashed and chopped

• 1/2 tbsp olive oil

• 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

• squeeze of lemon juice

Guacamole:

• 1 avocado - mashed

• pinch of salt to taste

• 1/2 shallot or red onion - diced

• juice of 1 lime

Toppings:

• 1 tbsp coconut yogurt

• fresh mint leaves

Method:

First, marinate the lamb:

• To the lamb, add garlic, thyme, rosemary and olive oil and evenly coat.

While the lamb Is marinating, make the salad so it can soak in the dressing!

• Add the carrot, cabbage, cucumber, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice into a bowl; mix well.

Next, guac!

• Mash the avocado and add the diced onion, lime juice and salt to a bowl; mix well.

Now cook the Lamb Steak so it has time to rest:

• Heat a pan over medium heat, sear for 2-3 minutes per side for medium rare (Depending on the thickness of your steak).

• Remove from the pan and set aside to rest while you make the tortillas

Finally - the tortillas!

• In a bowl, mix the cassava flour, coconut yogurt, olive oil and salt until combined. The dough should be very thick - don't worry if it's crumbly, it will all come together. (if not, add more yogurt or flour)

• Generously flour a surface and separate the dough into 3 balls, flatten with your fingers until they form tortilla shapes. The dough is pretty resilient so keep going until they're as thin as you'd like.

• Ensure both sides have a dusting of flour.

• Heat a dry pan over medium-high heat and dry fry the tortillas for 1-2 minutes per side or until they have some colour.

Assemble your tortillas and enjoy!
