Here is a delicious raw, living food tacos taken from a recent workshop I delivered alongside my raw chef mate, Jay Halford. This recipe makes four raw tacos. Before assembling the tacos, the first step is to prepare the fillings.
Walnut and Sun-dried Tomato Filling
This has a delicious "meaty" flavour and will be the main filling for the tacos.
Juicy Ingredients
- 100g Walnuts (unsoaked)
- 50g sun-dried tomato (soaked for minimum of 3 hours)
- 1 tomato
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 tbsp tamari
- 1 tsp paprika
How to Make
Place in the walnuts in a high speed blender like the Optimum 9400 and blitz until broken down into fine pieces. Add remaining ingredients and pulse until blended. You may need to use the tamper to keep the mixture moving.
Paprika Cashew Cream
This is an incredibly quick and easy to make creamy dressing that works well with lots of raw dishes.
