I love Mexican Fish Tacos. Here, I am sharing easy Fish Tacos which I made for simple yet hearty weekend meal. Light, healthy and made in a jiffy. I made them with left over Rotis (Indian bread). You can choose store bought corn tortillas as well.
Tilapia fish fillets marinated in red chili powder, turmeric, loads of garlic, coriander leaves and little lime juice.
Guac mayo was creamy and delicious. Made with Avocado, Olive oil, lime juice, mustard paste, lemon, honey and little salt & pepper.
Easy salad with Purple and green cabbage, red onions dressed with Guac Mayo.
