Fish Tacos with Pico de Gallo
Photography by Manja Wachsmuth.
Juicy fish, spicy salsa and creamy avocado are wrapped up in soft, warm tortillas. I leave the seeds in the chilli for extra heat, but you can remove them for a milder flavour.

500 grams firm white fish
juice 1 lime
sea salt and ground pepper
olive oil
Pico de Gallo
2 medium ripe tomatoes, diced
1 very small red onion, finely chopped
