Notes
Budget tip: Use beef rump steak instead of the fillet and save around $12 in total.
We heated our tortillas following the packet directions then sprayed with a little oil and cooked on a chargrill pan to give them extra colour and flavour.
You can use white corn or wholemeal tortillas instead of flour.
