Tacos is a compact flexibound cookbook by Nud Dudhia and Chris Whitney, the founders of London's Breddos Tacos, with over 50 recipes for tortillas, salsas, marinades and the tacos to put them in. It's small enough to keep beside the grill and packed with big, bright flavour.

From a car-park taco shack to your kitchen

Breddos began in 2013 as a taco shack built from scrap wood in a Hackney car park. Nud and Chris have since travelled the Americas chasing the perfect taco, learning salsas, techniques and fillings from taqueros along the way, and this little book is the distilled result.

What's inside

It opens with Tacos Are Life, a taco trail through their travels, the larder, essential equipment and tortillas, then gets stuck into The Tacos before finishing with a chapter of salsas and condiments you'll end up using on everything.

Standouts include Carne Asada with Chipotle Cashew Nut Salsa, Duck Carnitas with gem lettuce, plums and pickles, Guinea Fowl with Avocado, a Tuna Tostada with chipotle mayonnaise and butter-braised jalapeños, Scallop Aguachile, Sunday Short-Rib Barbacoa Nachos and Yucatán-style chicken.

Who it's for

Anyone who loves a taco night and wants to move well past packet seasoning. Grilled fillings like carne asada are made for a hot barbecue, the format is compact enough to live in the outdoor kitchen, and it makes a cracking stocking filler.

About Nud Dudhia & Chris Whitney

Nud Dudhia and Chris Whitney are the mates behind Breddos Tacos, which started in 2013 as a scrap-wood taco shack in a Hackney car park and grew into a London restaurant business. They were the only UK outfit invited to cook at Tacolandia, the gourmet taco festival in Los Angeles.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Darryl Rubb, The Rub Smuggler

No manifest, no problem: this little book slips into the tongs drawer and packs the whole Breddos playbook, from tortillas and marinades to salsas you'll want on everything. Darryl's weak spot is the Scallop Aguachile, sharp, cold and gone in a minute. Buy it before your next taco night and char the tortillas straight on the grill for 20 seconds a side. Read it with CDMX for Mexico City street food and Tex-Mex Cookbook for the Texan side of the border, and spoon Nomad Salsa Macha over the carne asada.

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Salsa Macha Sunrise Tacos

The morning-after taco nobody needs to know about.

You'll need: 2 eggs, 1 tbsp salsa macha, 2 corn tortillas, half an avocado, a lime wedge, a pinch of salt

Do this:

  1. Warm the salsa macha in a frying pan over medium heat for 30 seconds.
  2. Crack in the eggs and fry until the whites set and the edges go lacy and crisp.
  3. Warm the tortillas, then top with the eggs, sliced avocado, salt and a squeeze of lime.

Why it works: The chilli oil does double duty as cooking fat and seasoning, crisping the egg whites while it spices them.
