Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion , chopped
1 heaped tbsp chipotle paste
500g carton passata
500ml vegetable stock
400g can kidney beans , drained and rinsed
400g can black beans , drained and rinsed
200g feta
2 garlic cloves , crushed
4 large or 8 small flour tortillas
small pack coriander , roughly chopped, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion over a medium heat for 10 mins to soften. Stir in the chipotle paste, passata, stock and all the beans. Season, bring to the boil, then gently simmer for 5 mins.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl crumble the feta and mix with the garlic. Divide between the tortillas, spreading over one half of each, then sprinkle over a little pepper.
