  • 600g skinless and boneless white fish fillets, cut into large chunks

  • 1tsp smoked paprika
  • Zest and juice 1 lime, plus wedges to serve
  • Cooking oil spray

  3. Meanwhile, combine the cabbage, carrot, lettuce, sweetcorn, apple and mint or coriander leaves in a mixing bowl. Add the lime juice and olive oil, then toss to mix. Warm the wraps according to the pack instructions, then divide among 4 plates.
  4. Top one half of each wrap with the salad, fish, avocado and a dollop of yogurt. Fold up and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over.
