For The Beetroot Slaw

- 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
- 2 Limes, plus extra wedges for serving

Cooking Instructions:
-
1 First, make the avo-mayo, combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until well combined. Refrigerate until needed.

-
3 Preheat an oven 180°C. Arrange tortillas in a single layer on a shallow roasting tray lined with baking paper, and lightly spray with olive oil.
-
4 Bake for 5 to 10 minutes or until they turn light golden and crispy. Remove from oven and leave to cool.
-
5 Roll the fish in the taco seasoning until evenly coated. Heat olive oil in a shallow based frying pan over a medium heat.
