A great taco offers a variety of textures and flavours, and this easy recipe featuring spicy lentils and garlicky mushrooms ticks all the boxes. The toppings of coriander, avocado and sour cream offer a fresh, cool contrast. Many people enjoy tacos frequently, using ready-made spice mixes. Impress your guests by making your own spice mix – it adds a vibrant homemade flavour that is superior to industrial mixes. These tacos are enhanced with a little kick of chipotle hotness – chipotle is a dried and smokey variety of jalapeño. You can substitute the chipotle paste for another chilli.
