Beck Johnson

Becks: "It is absolutely worth getting your hands on some good beans. Bold bean have the best ones. They’re stored in brine, which makes them super tasty, juicy & salty. I’d get some if I were you" !

Ingredients

The Enchiladas

1 sweet potato
½ jar of Queen Black Beans, drained
1/4 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp ground cinnamon
A small bunch of fresh coriander, finely chopped
2 big handfuls of grated cheese, such as cheddar or feta (or vegan alternative)
6 mini (taco sized) soft tortillas
25 g cheddar, 25 g mozzarella mixed, to top (or vegan alternative)

The Tomato Sauce

400g chopped tomatoes
100ml water
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground coriander
1 tbsp balsamic

To serve

Lime wedges
Yogurt or sour cream, or vegan alternative

Made with:
Queen Red Beans

These are the most delicious red beans you will ever meet. They are the creamiest, biggest variety of a red kidney bean out there.

Directions

step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C.
step 2
Add everything for your tomato sauce to a medium saucepan, then leave on medium-low heat to reduce, stirring occasionally. Season to taste.
step 3
Cut your sweet potato in half, then into quarters, then steam until it is soft in the centre - this should take about 20 minutes. Once soft, remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly. Remove the skin from the outside of the potato - it should just peel off.
step 4
Mash your sweet potato with the back of a fork until smooth, mix it with the cheddar/feta and black beans, then add your spices and season to taste.
step 5
Once your tomato sauce has thickened, season to taste, then take off the heat.
step 6
Add 1 tbsp your sweet potato mix to the middle of each tortilla, then roll them up to make 6 individual rolls. Add to your baking dish, side by side (if you need to roll up more tortillas to fill the baking dish, then do).
step 7
Top with your tomato sauce, spread over evenly, then top with your cheddar and mozzarella mix, and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese on top has gone golden brown.
step 8
Top with chopped coriander. Serve with a squeeze of lime and some yoghurt/sour cream, if you fancy.

Beautiful Queen Black Beans

These Queen black beans have a flavour that’s rich, earthy and slightly nutty - a quality which holds up against punchy Asian sauces and zing from chillies. Try them in a Mexican-inspired shakshuka or braised in miso butter, loaded with kimchi and stir-fried veg.
