I picked a few Anaheim chiles from The Potted Kitchen Garden. I was thinking tacos…

I roasted the chiles over a flame until charred, then skinned, deseeded, and diced the chiles.

I cut the kernels off a fresh ear of sweet corn and roasted them in a pan.

I cubed two potatoes and boiled them until al dente in salted water with 2 fresh bay leaves, 2 whole garlic cloves, and 6 whole black peppercorns, then drained them and removed the peppercorns and bay leaves.

I made 8 small corn tortillas.

I heated a large cast iron pan over medium heat, added a good knob of butter, and softened a diced onion. I then added the potatoes to the pan and let them cook with the onions for a few minutes.

The diced chiles and roasted corn were added and I let them get happy with the potatoes and onions before I tasted for salt and pepper, then removed from the heat and mixed through a healthy tablespoon of crème fraîche.

The tacos were served with a chipotle crema and crumbled feta.

Chili lime fish tacos with home-made corn tortillas, pickled red onion, diced brown onion, coriander, and lime with a side of Spanish rice.

Fresh made corn tortillas. I was actually able to get some of the tortillas to puff up, a good sign of a happy tortilla.

The fish fillets were marinated for 10 minutes in a combination of oil, chili powder, toasted ground cumin, lime zest, the juice of one lime, salt, and pepper and pan fried.

Taco plate up!
