Fresh Mexican recipes to spice up meal time
Dive into a world of Mexican favourites, with ten new La Banderita recipes by Justine Schofield for any time of the day.
When it comes to authentic tortillas, fajitas and tacos, La Banderita has it covered. “I love using La Banderita for their fresh, perfectly soft restaurant-quality tortillas,” says Schofield. Armed with a packet of La Banderita tortillas and Justine Schofield’s collection of recipes, you’re set to make warming Mexican meals that will bring cheer to any table.
Justine has created these mid-week meals and easy entertainers full of the bold spices and flavours of Mexico, with flavours like heady cumin, rich and smoky chipotle chillies and zesty lime. Her recreation of the trending Lamb Birria Tacos is a prime example. These crisp pan-fried tacos are full of succulent lamb flavoured with dried guajillo chillies, cumin, coriander and oregano. Dip them into flavourful lamb broth for a taco experience like no other. Tender and juicy with a satisfying crunch, it’s no wonder they’re a viral sensation.
The flavour train doesn’t stop there. The Cumin-Crusted Leg of Lamb is ideal to slice and serve in tortillas. For parties, you can't go past crispy cream cheese-filled Chicken Taquitos, or kick the fancy dial up a notch with Duck and Orange Carnitas wrapped in soft tacos. You can even bring Mexican food to breakfast time, dipping your tortillas in spicy Baked Eggs with Jalapeno White Sauce.
