Ingredients

  • 3 cups (about 300 grams) shredded purple cabbage - $0.58
  • 2 limes the zest and juice of one, the other sliced for serving - $0.46
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt divided - $0.03
  • 1 mango diced - $0.75
  • 1 avocado diced - $1.25
  • ½ medium red onion diced - $0.17
  • ½ cup (120 ml) soy yogurt - $1.00
  • 2 teaspoons adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers - $0.33
  • 1 jar of hearts of palm 6 pieces (can sub quartered artichoke hearts or oyster mushrooms) - $3.09
  • Oil for frying - $0.40
  • ½ cup (64 grams) flour - $0.04
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder - $0.04
  • ½ cup (120 ml) ice water (put some ice cubes in a measuring cup first then add water to reach ½ cup) - $0.00
  • 12 small tortillas toasted in a pan or warmed in the microwave - $2.45
  • A small bunch of cilantro chopped - $0.20

Instructions

  • Put the cabbage in a bowl and squeeze over the juice of half a lime and add ½ teaspoon of salt. Toss to combine and refrigerate.
  • Combine the mango, avocado and red onion in a separate bowl and refrigerate.
  • Combine the soy yogurt, adobo sauce, the zest of one lime, the juice of ½ a lime and ¼ teaspoon salt in a bowl and refrigerate.
  • Slice the hearts of palm crosswise and lengthwise into four pieces. Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat and prepare a plate lined with paper towels. Make sure all the taco fixings are ready and the oil is hot before you mix up the batter. 
  • In a bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and ¼ teaspoon salt. Whisk in the ice water to make a thick batter. Don’t over mix this, it’s okay if there are still some lumps. Drop in a few pieces of hearts of palm and transfer them to the hot oil. Work in batches to avoid dropping the temp of the oil. Fry, flipping once if necessary, for a couple of minutes until they are golden brown then remove them to the paper-towel lined plate to drain.
  • Serve all the fixings on top of warmed tortillas with a drizzle of sauce on top and a sprinkling of fresh cilantro and a slice of lime on the side.
