Hack into the flavours of South East Asia with Jenny's Kitchen Tamarind Chutney. A spoonful mixed through beef mince transforms these smash tacos into a Thai-flavoured hybrid that everyone will love. Pair it with a crunchy salad - think mung bean sprouts, cucumber and if you like, a little red chilli for some heat.
