Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Peel your red onion[s] and slice rings off as finely as you can for per person, then dice the remaining onion
Add the onion rings and red wine vinegar to a shallow bowl and set aside to pickle until serving – these are your quick-pickled onion rings

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the diced onion with a pinch of salt and cook for 4-5 min or until softened
Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic
Add the chopped garlic to the softened onion and cook for 1 min further, then set aside until serving

Meanwhile, wash your gem lettuce, then pat dry with kitchen paper and separate the outer leaves, then finely shred the inner core[s]
Drain and finely dice your pineapple
Tip: Don't chuck pineapple juice down the drain. Instead, add it to your smoothies, cakes or marinades!
Combine the shredded lettuce, diced pineapple and chilli flakes (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!) in a bowl with plenty of black pepper – this is your pineapple salsa

Chop your coriander as finely as you can, including the stalks
Combine your mayo with 2 tsp [3 tsp] [4 tsp] cold water and the chopped coriander in a bowl – this is your herby mayo

Pat your hake fillet[s] dry with kitchen paper and chop into bite-sized pieces
Add the chopped hake to a bowl with your soy sauce, ground smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and a pinch of salt
Give everything a good mix until the hake is evenly coated – this is your coated hake

Heat a separate large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the coated hake and cook for 3-4 min on each side or until cooked through – this is your smoky hake
Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Add your tortillas to a plate and pop them in the microwave for 20 secs on high or until warmed through
Drain the quick-pickled onion rings and discard the liquid

Top your warmed tortillas with a dollop of herby mayo and the lettuce leaves
Fill the lettuce leaves with the softened onion, top with smoky hake, pineapple salsa and garnish with the quick-pickled onion rings – these are your smoky hake, pineapple & red onion tacos
Enjoy!
