Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C). Finely dice the onion and fry in olive oil for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin and chipotle paste and cook for 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add the tinned tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes. Reserve half the sauce for topping. Drain and rinse the kidney beans and mash them roughly into the remaining sauce. Season.

  3. 3

    Divide the bean mixture between the 8 tortillas, rolling each one up tightly. Arrange seam-side down in a single layer in a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Pour the reserved tomato sauce over the rolled tortillas. Scatter generously with grated cheddar.

  5. 5

    Bake for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the edges of the tortillas are crisp.

  6. 6

    Serve dolloped with soured cream, with sliced avocado and fresh coriander if liked.
