Not being able to travel has mean that we are having to come up with ways to pretend we are on holiday! This weekends theme was Mexican. We made chorizo & butternut squash tacos and courgette & corn tacos with baked feta.

Steps

1

Place the butternut, garlic, olive oil, chopped chilli in a preheated oven at 200c to roast for 20-30 minutes until brown and soft. Meanwhile dice the chorizo and onion to be fried later.
2

To prepare the baked feta, place the draped feta blocks in an oven proof dish, cover with the garlic, chilli, herbs, lime juice and oil. Place in the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes until soft.
3

Next prepare the tortillas, in a bowl add the masa harina flour, salt, oil and half of the hot water. Set aside for 10 minutes. Following the 10 minutes slowly add the remaking water while kneading for 5 minutes. Cover with a damp towel and set aside to rest.
4

To prepare the courgette filling, fry the onions, courgette and sweetcorn until soft. Stir in the herbs and season.
5

For the squash filling, removed the squash and begging to fry the chorizo and onions, once the chorizo has released some of the oils add in the butternut.

Place a small ball of the tortilla dough in a press and fry slowly until cooked.

Enjoy the tortilla with an ice cold beer. We made a simple quick red onion pickle for the chorizo filling
