Tribal People's First Taste of Fajita Salad
About this video
Tribal People Try sits the tribe down with tacos. It's filmed in the village, not a studio, and what you see is what happened on the day.
What is tacos?
Tacos are Mexican: a corn or wheat tortilla folded around spiced meat or beans, with salsa, onion, coriander and lime. Burritos, quesadillas and nachos are the same ingredients in different shapes.
What to watch for
Mexican food is the cuisine the tribe gets on with fastest — chilli, coriander, lime, onion and slow-cooked meat are their own vocabulary. Corn tortillas taste a lot like makai ki roti, which comes up in almost every taco video.
The comparison they always make
A taco is basically a roti wrap, and the village has been folding roti around salan forever. Sour cream is the one element that meets resistance.
