Prep time: Mexico Mexican
Cook time: Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 12 (135g packet) taco shells
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 500g lean beef mince
  • 1 1/2 cups (375g jar) thick 'n' chunky tomato salsa
  • 1 beef stock cube
  • 4 lettuce leaves, shredded
  • 1/2 cup grated tasty cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Place taco shells slightly apart on tray, leaving the provided 'wedge' in the centre of the shells (see note). Heat for 5 minutes or until hot, but not browned.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add mince. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up mince, for 5 minutes or until browned.
  3. Add salsa and stir to combine. Crumble stock over mince mixture. Add 1/4 cup cold water. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes or until sauce reduces and thickens slightly.
  4. Spoon 2 1/2 tablespoons of mince mixture into each taco shell. Top with lettuce and cheese. Serve.
