Cooking Steps

Chip, Chip, Hooray
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the middle shelf until golden, 30-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Start Mixing
2

Crack the egg (see pantry for amount) into a medium bowl and whisk.

Put the breadcrumbs into another medium bowl. Mix with the Central American style spice mix and oil for the breadcrumbs (see pantry for amount), then season with salt and pepper

Bread the Prawns
3

Next, drain the prawns.

Dip the prawns into the egg, then the breadcrumbs, ensuring they're completely coated. Shake off the excess and transfer to a lined baking tray.

When the chips have 15 mins remaining, pop on the top shelf of your oven to cook until crisp and golden, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. They're cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.

Finish the Prep
4

While everything's in the oven, trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice.

In a medium bowl, combine cider vinegar, sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Set aside for now.

When the prawns has 5 mins remaining, pop a small saucepan on medium-high heat.

Add the hot sauce, honey, water for the sauce and butter (see pantry for both amounts) and stir vigorously until the butter has melted and the sauce is piping hot, 1-2 mins. TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

Finishing Touches
5

Pop the tortillas (2 per person) into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

Toss the baby gem through the dressing.

Serve Up
6

Share the tortillas between your plates. Spread the smashed avocado over the centre of each taco.

Load on the baby gem salad and top with the breaded prawns.

Finish by drizzling over the hot honey sauce and mayo (see pantry for amount).

Serve the chips alongside.
