FRIED BLACK BEAN FILLED TORTILLAS (PANUCHOS)

Steps:

• Using a 5-inch round cookie cutter, cut a smaller tortilla out of each tortilla. Save the scraps for making chilaquiles, tortilla soup, etc. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Then add the beans to warm and soften, about 5 minutes, stirring continuously to avoid burning. Turn the heat off and reserve.
• In a large saute pan, heat the remaining 1/2 cup of vegetable oil to 350 degrees F. While the oil is heating, form the panuchos. Start by spreading 1 tablespoon of warmed beans on the surface of the tortilla. Stack the second tortilla over it pressing on the edges to seal. Remove the excess beans on the side of the panucho. Working in batches, fry the panuchos until golden in color, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.

BLACK BEAN TORTILLA WITH SALSA

Steps:

• Tip the tomatoes into a pan and stir in the onion, ½ the chilli and the smoked paprika. Cook over a low heat for 10 mins. Tip ¾ into a bowl, then stir in 2 tbsp of the coriander and the olives and lemon juice.
• Meanwhile, heat the grill. Tip the beans into a bowl and stir in the remaining chilli, the garlic, cumin and coriander. Beat in the eggs, then add the reserved ¼ of the salsa and the remaining fresh coriander with a little salt to taste. Blitz a little using a hand blender or mash some of the beans with a potato masher.
• Heat a 24cm non-stick pan with the oil. Pour in the bean mixture and leave to cook gently for 5-7 mins until the base is set, then grill for 5 mins. Tip out and cut into 4 wedges. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, serve two wedges with half of the remaining salsa and the rocket. Chill the rest for the following day.
