Easy Step-by-Step

1. Combine the cabbage, carrot, beetroot and most of the coriander in a bowl.

2. Whisk together mayonnaise, yoghurt and half the lime juice, then toss gently through the vegetables.

3. Coat the fish with salt and paprika. Heat oil in a frying pan and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden and just cooked through.

4. Warm the tortillas according to packet instructions.

5. Layer the slaw, fish, sliced chilli and remaining coriander onto each tortilla.

6. Finish with a drizzle of lime juice, roll up and serve with extra lime wedges.

Why This Recipe Works

Cabbage and beetroot bring not only colour and crunch, but also valuable fibre to support healthy digestion. Paired with lean white fish, which is a good source of protein, these burritos offer a balanced and satisfying meal that won’t weigh you down. The lime adds brightness while the yoghurt-mayo mix gives creaminess without being too heavy.
