Servings: 6 servings
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Garlic infused olive oil
  • 1 (chopped) Onion
  • 1 (chopped) Red pepper
  • 2 (chopped with seeds) Green bird's eye chillies
  • 1 teaspoon Maldon sea salt flakes
  • 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Fresh coriander stalks
  • 800 grams (2 cans) Chopped tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Tomato ketchup
  • 800 grams (2 cans, drained and rinsed) Black beans
  • 500 grams (2 cans, drained) Canned sweetcorn kernels
  • 150 grams Grated mature goat's cheddar
  • 6 Soft flour tortilla wraps

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Heat the garlic infused olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and red pepper, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the chopped green chillies, salt, and finely chopped coriander stalks. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the chopped tomatoes and tomato ketchup to the pan. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the drained black beans and sweetcorn. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Spread a thin layer of the bean and vegetable sauce in the bottom of a large baking dish.
  6. Place two tortilla wraps over the sauce, slightly overlapping if needed.
  7. Spoon one-third of the remaining sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle with a quarter of the grated goat's cheddar.
  8. Repeat layers twice more: tortillas, sauce, and cheese. For the top layer, finish with the remaining sauce and cheese.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the bake is heated through.
  10. Let stand for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves if desired.
