Ingredients

  • Beef flank steak - 300 grams
  • Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
  • Tamarind paste - 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh lime juice - 3 tablespoons
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
  • Cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Black pepper - to taste
  • Avocado - 1 small, sliced
  • Radishes - 4, thinly sliced

Steps

  1. In a medium bowl, combine tamarind paste, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Cut the beef flank steak into thin strips and add it to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the marinated beef strips to the skillet and cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
  5. While the beef is cooking, warm the corn tortillas on a hot skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
  6. To assemble the tacos, place a portion of the beef mixture on each tortilla, top with fresh cilantro, avocado slices, and radish slices.
  7. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.
