Step 3

With the food processor running, slowly pour in 1-2 tablespoons Signature SELECT™ Avocado Oil. Stop the food processor and scrape down the bowl. Turn the food processor on again and continue to pour in another 1-2 tablespoons oil until the mixture turns creamy and emulsified. Increase the speed of pouring in the oil and alternate with the lemon juice until all of the oil and lemon juice are incorporated. This will take about 10 minutes to complete.

Step 5

Assemble the tacos: Using your hands, form the kefta into 8 equal-sized meatballs. Place each onto a tortilla and spread as thin and wide as possible. The meat will shrink when it cooks.
