Method

• step 1

  Combine the mince, shallots and dried herbs in a bowl until well combined (do this easily by scrunching it all together using your hands). Divide the mixture into eight balls.

• step 2

  Press one ball down onto each tortilla to create thin burger patties that fill most of the tortilla, but with a small border of about 3cm.

• step 3

  Heat a drizzle of oil in one or two large frying pans over a medium heat and fry the tortillas, meat-side down, for 6-8 mins until the meat is cooked through (lift the tortilla up to check), pressing the tortilla with a spatula while cooking. Once cooked, flip over, top with a slice of cheese and cook for 1-2 mins more. (You’ll need to do this in two or four batches, depending on how many pans you have.) Serve the tacos filled with your favourite toppings.
