Make the slaw: Wash and finely slice the iceberg lettuce and red cabbage. Peel and grate the carrot. Finely slice the green leaves of the spring onion/green onion. Place the slaw ingredients in a bowl and add a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, then mix well.
Make the taco spice mix: In a small glass or bowl mix the oregano, paprika, smoked paprika, cumin, ground coriander, chilli powder, salt and black pepper.
Prep the beef ingredients: Deseed and dice the green bell pepper/capsicum and finely chop with green leek leaves
Cook the beef: Place a larger non-stick frypan over medium-high heat. Once hot add the garlic infused oil and brown off the beef with the green bell pepper/capsicum and leek leaves until the beef is slightly crispy. Next, add the taco spice mix and fry for 1 minute until fragrant. Then add the tomato paste and water and mix well. Turn down the heat to medium-low and allow to gently simmer until the liquid evaporates.
Heat the corn tacos according to the packet instructions.
Assemble the tacos: Fill each taco shell with a mixture of coleslaw and beef, then top with a dollop of sour cream or mayonnaise and cheese. Garnish with fresh coriander/cilantro if desired. Serve any extra beef and slaw on the side. Enjoy!
