Ingredients

• ½ onion (chopped)
• 100 g black beans
• 1 tsp sweet paprika
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• ½ tsp chilli powder
• ½ tsp oregano
• 1 tsp tomato puree
• ½ tsp garlic puree
• 10 baby plum tomatoes (cut in half)
• 2 soft corn wheat tortillas
• 1 avocado (smashed)
• 2 eggs
• 1 small lime
• 1 handful coriander (to serve)
• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil

Method

1. Heat some of the oil in a saucepan on a medium to high heat. Fry the onions until they are glossy.
2. Add the spices and give everything a good stir. Add the tomato puree and garlic puree, then cook through for 1 minute. Add the beans and stir to coat in the spices. Turn the heat right down and simmer with the lid on for 5 minutes. Add water if needed.
3. Prepare the avocado and gently mash it using a fork. Squeeze in some lime and season with salt and pepper.
4. Place the tortillas in a dry frying pan and heat both sides for a few minutes until they have a bit of colour and become crisp.
5. Fry 2 eggs with the rest of the oil.
6. Place the tortilla on a plate, add the egg, followed by the bean mixture along with the smashed avocado, sliced tomatoes, coriander and a lime wedge. Sprinkle some smoked paprika across the egg. Serve and enjoy!
