Ingredients Method

What you'll need

2-3 Garlic Cloves, chopped
3 x 400g cans of black beans- drained (you could use kidney beans if black beans weren’t available)
1 ½ tbsp honey
1 ½ tbsp smoked paprika
3 tbsp cider vinegar
1 ½ tbsp ground cumin

For the salsa:

A pack of cherry tomatoes chopped in quarters
1 small red onion finely diced
Small handful of fresh coriander

To serve:

8-12 flour tortillas
Sour cream
Squeeze of lime
Guacamole
Grated cheese
Chopped lettuce

Method

In a large frying pan, heat your oil and your chopped garlic. Fry off until golden and add your beans. Lightly stir and then add your honey, spices and a pinch of salt until well mixed together. Cook until warmed through and gently crush with the back of your spoon and leave to one side.
Mix your salsa ingredients together and place in a bowl. Once done so, heat your tortillas in a dry griddle pan or place in the microwave for around 10 seconds. Reheat the bean mixture if needed.
To serve, put a heaped table spoon of the bean mixture on your tortilla and top with your desired toppings! Enjoy!

Serving suggestion: Why not add some jalapenos for a spicy kick and sweet potato wedges as a side.
