Steps:
- Put the steak in a bowl with the spices and garlic, and stir well. If you have time, leave to marinate for a couple of hrs. Heat the oil in a wok, then tip in the beef and fry for just 1-2 mins, until it changes colour but is still on the rare side. Remove the beef to a plate.
- Add the pepper and half the onion, and stir-fry in the juices - add a splash of water to get things going and stop it burning. Stir in the tomatoes and beans, and heat through with plenty of seasoning, then stir in most of the coriander.
- Meanwhile, heat the tortillas. The best way is directly on the gas flame, as it gives them a lovely charred flavour. Stir the beef into the beans and heat briefly. Serve with the tortillas and the reserved onion and coriander.

Tips:
- Choose tender cuts of beef: Flank steak, skirt steak, or sirloin steak are good choices for fajitas. These cuts are relatively thin and cook quickly, making them ideal for wrapping.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, cumin, and chili powder is a good starting point.
- Cook the beef over high heat: Fajitas are typically cooked over high heat, which helps to sear the meat and give it a slightly charred flavor. You can cook the beef in a skillet or on a grill.
- Slice the beef thinly: Once the beef is cooked, slice it thinly against the grain. This will help to make the beef more tender and easier to wrap.
- Use fresh, flavorful tortillas: Fresh, warm tortillas are essential for fajitas. You can use corn or flour tortillas, depending on your preference.
- Add your favorite toppings: Fajitas can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as grilled vegetables, salsa, guacamole, and sour cream. Get creative and experiment with different combinations to find your favorite fajita recipe.
