Method

  1. First, make the adobo. Put the chillies, tomatoes, onion and garlic in a saucepan. Add 500ml/18fl oz water and bring to the boil over a high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat and set aside to cool.

  2. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.

  3. Put the mushrooms in a baking tray and set aside.

  4. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chillies, tomatoes, onion and garlic to a blender. Add the spices, vinegar and salt and blend until smooth. Rub through a sieve into a jug or bowl.

  5. Pour the adobo over the mushrooms and add the sunflower oil. Mix well, making sure the mushrooms are all covered with the sauce.

  6. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the mushrooms halfway through cooking.

  7. Serve in the tortillas. Garnish with coriander, chopped onion, a squeeze of lime and a dollop of spicy salsa.
