Indian Style Breakfast Tacos with Tzatziki sauce

March 8, 2018 by Pure Indian Foods Leave a Comment

I know what you’re thinking. Is this recipe Mexican? Indian? Greek? Well, it’s a little bit of all of those, and a lot-a-bit delicious!

I personally used grassfed cubed steak in this recipe, but you could use pork, chicken, or even cubed cauliflower and potatoes. 🙂

This recipe is super easy to put together, and takes about 15-20 minutes.

Instructions
  1. Begin by prepping your meat or vegetables by cutting into small bite-sized pieces, and place in a large bowl.
  2. Measure out all your spices into the bowl, and toss with your meat or veg.
  3. Next, heat the ghees in a large skillet on medium heat.
  4. Add the whole cumin seeds, and cover until they begin to pop.
  5. Add your meat or veg, along with the tomato paste and water and juice from 1 lime.
  6. Add flour, stir well, then cover and simmer for about 10 minutes or until meat or veg is cooked through and tender.
  7. While the meat/veg is cooking, stir together all the ingredients for the tzatziki sauce in a small bowl, and chop your toppings.
  8. Check the meat or veg at 10 minutes for doneness, and remove the lid. Simmer without the lid on low for 2-3 minutes to thicken the sauce if needed.
  9. When the meat/veg is cooked, before turning off the heat, add the eggs (if you want), and stir continuously until the eggs are fully cooked.
  10. Serve in soft or hard taco shells or burrito wraps. Top with toppings. Enjoy!
