Ingredients

8 corn tortillas (look for them near the other wraps or by the Mexican food)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion , chopped
3 garlic cloves , chopped
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp ground cumin
5 tbsp cider vinegar
3 tbsp clear honey
3 x 400g cans black beans , rinsed and drained
choose a few toppings- chopped tomatoes, sliced red onion, diced avocado, sliced jalapeño peppers , coriander sprigs
crème fraîche or Tabasco chipotle sauce, to serve

Steps:

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Brush the tortillas with a little of the oil and place in a single layer on baking sheets. Cook for 8 mins until crisp.
In a large frying pan, heat the remaining oil. Add the onion and garlic, and cook for 5 mins. Add the spices, vinegar and honey. Cook for 2 mins more. Add the beans and seasoning, and heat through.
Remove from the heat and mash the beans gently with the back of your spoon to a chunky purée. Spread some beans over the crispy corn tortillas, scatter with your choice of toppings and add a spoonful of crème fraîche to cool down, or a splash of chipotle Tabasco to spice it up.
