method

1. For the salad base: Heat the oil in a frying pan then add the turkey and fry until sealed, this will take approximately 4 minutes. Drain off any excess fat. Add the seasoning mix and water, stir well and cook for a further 4- 5 minutes. Put to one side.

2. In a bowl combine together the remaining ingredients.

3. For the baskets: Heat the oil in a frying pan or deep fat fryer to 190°C, 375°F. When hot add the tortillas, cooking them whilst holding down with a metal ladle to form a dip. This will take approximately 1 minute. Remove and place on kitchen paper to drain. Repeat the process for the remaining flour tortillas.

4. Fill the baskets with the salad ingredients and turkey. Serve immediately.
