20min | Makes 6 tacos

2 large passionfruit
2 Lebanese cucumbers
½ white onion
1 handful of fresh coriander (chopped)
1/2 lime

1pinch salt
Tacos
1/4 red cabbage
1 handful lettuce leaves
1 avocado
2 large fillets of white flesh fish
6 tortillas (corn or flour)

Method:
Cut cucumbers length ways and scrape out the seeds using a teaspoon.
Finely dice cucumber and onion, then add to a small mixing bowl with chopped coriander and passionfruit pulp.
Add salt, sugar and lime juice to taste. Mix with a spoon.
Finely slice red cabbage and avocado and lay out on a serving platter.
Slice fish into 2cm-thick strips and season with salt.
Pan fry fish on high heat until cooked. Set aside.
Heat tortillas on a pan or in microwave and leave in a warm tea-towel until ready to serve.
To assemble the taco, layer cabbage, lettuce, avocado and fish on top of a tortilla and top with passionfruit salsa, coriander and jalapeno. Serve with lime wedges for an extra tang. For a more interactive serving style, arrange all ingredients on a platter for guests to help themselves and make their own taco!
Tips:
Keeping the tortillas wrapped and warm will ensure they do not dry out before serving.
