Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then dice your red onion[s] very finely and peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into fries, then add to a baking paper-lined baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 25-30 min or until golden and crisp

Step 1
2

While the fries are cooking, slice your green chilli[es] finely and cut your lime[s] into wedges

Chop half the coriander roughly, leave the rest whole

Dice your tomato[es] finely

Cut your avocado[s] in half lengthways, around the stone, remove the stone[s] using a spoon, then scoop out the avocado flesh and slice finely lengthways

Step 2
3

Add the sliced chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and diced tomato to a small bowl with drizzle of olive oil

Season with a pinch of salt and sugar and squeeze the juice of half the lime over the top, then set aside – this is your pico de gallo

Step 3
4

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the sweetcorn (no need to drain!) with a pinch of salt and cook for 6-7 min or until slightly charred, then transfer the charred corn to a small bowl and reserve the pan

Combine the charred corn with half the crème fraîche and crumble in half the feta (you'll the rest later!)

Season with a pinch of salt and a crack of black pepper – this is your creamed corn

Step 4
5

Heat a pot (with a matching lid) over a medium-high heat with a small knob of butter

Once melted, add 3/4 of your diced red onion and cook for 3-4 min or until beginning to soften

Once slightly softened, add the chipotle paste (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!) and cook for 2-3 min further – this is your chipotle onion

Step 5
6

When the chips are almost ready, add your mussels and any juices to the pot and bring to the boil over high heat

Once boiling, cover with a lid and cook for 5-6 min or until the mussels are cooked through

Once cooked, stir through the remaining crème fraîche – these are your chipotle mussels

Tip: Cooking for 3 or more? Use 2 pots!

Tip: Discard any mussels which shells have not opened!

Step 6
7

Meanwhile, return the reserved pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil

Once hot, drain then add your king prawns and chopped garlic and cook for 4-5 min or until cooked through – these are your garlicky prawns

Add your tortillas to a plate and pop in the microwave for 20 secs on high or until warmed

Step 7
8

Divide the creamed corn and a little sliced avocado equally between the warmed tortillas

Top with the garlicky prawns, remaining diced red onion and reserved coriander leaves – these are your king prawn & avocado coriander tacos

Top the fries with the pico de gallo and crumble the remaining feta over the top – these are your loaded fries

Finally, serve the chipotle mussels in a bowl garnished with the chopped coriander and a lime wedge and enjoy!
