Fish Tacos

‘Wraps’ were on the menu tonight. ‘Wraps’ is how we describe flour tortillas because they are soft, not crunchy and the fillings can be wrapped inside by the tortilla shell.

My daughter wanted ‘wraps’ tonight, but usually the fillings are a tomato sauce, a spicy meat sauce, pestos, cheeses, vegetables of all kinds, and other assorted fillings.But I wanted some fish on the menu so I thought I’d meet both requests by having fish tacos for dinner.This afternoon I whipped up about 50 flour tortillas (I could buy some at one of the stores in town, but home-made aren’t difficult and they taste better), prepared a sauce, and sliced some cabbage.I left the fish cooking to my wife. The fish fillets were spiced, then coated in a spicy flour mixture we bought last year at a nearby store (but they no longer sell that product). The fillets were fried in oil and turned out nice and crispy.I ate more fish tacos than I can count (and I can count quite high), enjoying the crunch of the fish and cabbage, the spice from the fish and sauce, and the tang from the extra hot sauce added to the taco.Father and daughter are happy, as was everyone else at the table.
