Method
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok over a high heat. Fry the onions for 3-4 minutes, then add the garlic and steak and fry for a minute more.
- Add the coriander stalks and spices, then stir-fry for another minute. Add the chargrilled peppers and cook until just warmed through, then scatter with the coriander leaves.
- Serve the steak with the warm tortillas and dips, along with jalapeños and lime wedges, if you like, so everyone can build their own fajita.
