Ingredients

  • 2 x 400 g tins black beans, drained
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp chipotle in adobo
  • 2 limes
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 avocados, sliced
  • 1 red onion, finely diced
  • a handful of coriander
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Method

  1. Soften the onion

    Fry the onion in the oil until soft, then add the garlic for a minute.

    7 min
  2. Cook the beans

    Add the beans, spices, chipotle and a splash of water. Crush about a third of the beans against the pan with the back of a spoon — that starch is what binds the rest into a filling instead of loose beans that fall out of the taco.

    7 min
  3. Season

    Season well and sharpen with the juice of one lime.

  4. Assemble

    Warm the tortillas, then top with the beans, avocado, red onion, coriander and the remaining lime in wedges.
