Ingredients

• White fish fillets (like tilapia or cod) - 250 grams
• Tamarind paste - 2 tablespoons
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix tamarind paste, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Add the fish fillets to the marinade and let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated fish fillets.
4. Cook the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.
5. While the fish is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or microwave.
6. Once the fish is cooked, remove it from the skillet and flake it into bite-sized pieces.
7. To assemble the tacos, place some flaked fish on each tortilla, top with shredded cabbage, cilantro, avocado slices, and radish.
