Preparation
- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced)
- Coat steak in Burrito spice mix. Heat a little olive oil in an ovenproof pan over medium heat. Cook beef on both sides for 1 minute to seal in juices. Remove from heat. Add vinegar. Place bay leaves, lime and tomato slices on top of the beef and add enough water to allow approximately 1 cm liquid in the base of the pan. Cover with a layer of baking paper and the lid to minimise evaporation and cook in the oven for 2 hours. Remove from oven. Before serving, use 2 forks to pull the beef into bite sized chunks. Stir to coat with pan juices.
- Toss chickpeas with olive oil, garlic and paprika. Place on an oven tray and roast for 30 minutes.
- Cook chicken stock and jalapeno in a covered pan on low heat for 10 minutes. Cool slightly, add coriander and process in a blender. To create hot green stock, strain into a bowl and use a spatula to push some of the flavoursome green pulp through the strainer.
- Heat oil in a medium size pan, cook onion and rice for 5 minutes, stirring. Add garlic, cook for an extra minute. Add hot green chicken stock and stir. Cover tightly with a lid and cook on low heat for 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Keep covered and stand for 10 minutes. Add chickpeas to rice and fluff rice with a fork.
- Heat a little olive oil with the garlic in a frying pan, add kale and toss through to wilt slightly.
- Stir coriander through crème fraiche.
- For pan toasted Tortillas: heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and brown each Tortilla for 10 seconds on one side only. Wrap in a tea towel until ready to serve.
