Method

  • step 1

    Put the steak in a plastic food bag then bash a few times with a rolling pin to flatten it a little. Open the bag and sprinkle over the cumin, paprika and lime juice, and season well. Smoosh everything together and leave to marinate while you make the other fillings.

  • step 2

    Whizz together the yogurt, garlic, chilli and coriander in a small blender until just smooth.

  • step 3

    Put the peppers, onion and olive oil in a bowl, and toss with seasoning. Heat a non-stick frying pan until hot then tip in the pepper mix and fry until softened and golden at the edges.

  • step 4

    Heat a griddle to really hot then sear the steak for 2 minutes on each side. Put on a plate to rest for 5 minutes, then slice.

  • step 5

    Add the tomatoes to the pepper pan and give it another blast of heat until the tomatoes soften. Toss in the steak and coriander. Serve in the tortillas with a spoonful of the sauce.
