It is only recently that I have developed a love for authentic Mexican food. The reason why I love Mexican cuisine is that it’s is so healthy and fresh! I love the way they garnish everything with fresh and crunchy vegetables and herbs.

But getting good Mexican food is a challenge, especially in India. Though there are a few top notch restaurants in the cities, very few people might actually know of them.

This recipe was my attempt at trying Mexican food at home and fusing it with Indian spices. I hope you guys like it as it boasts of taste and health!
