Cooking steps
- Preheat your oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Chop the tomatoes into 2cm chunks.
- Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve.
- Juice half the lime and cut the rest into thick wedges.
TIP: If you want to avoid turning on your oven you can dry-fry your tortillas in a pan instead!
- In a bowl, mix the lime juice with ¼ tsp salt and ¼ tsp sugar (double both for 4p).
- Add half the onion.
- Give it a good stir then set aside.
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat (without oil).
- Once hot, add the mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins.
- Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Once browned, add the remaining onion and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 2-3 mins.
- Add the tomato paste. Cook, stirring, for 1 min.
- Add 100ml water (double for 4p) to the pan along with the stock powder and stir to dissolve.
- Stir in the black beans and gently crush with the back of a fork.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 5-6 mins.
- Stir through a knob of butter and chipotle paste.
- Meanwhile, toss the tomato with a drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and mix well to combine.
- When the pork is nearly ready, pop the tortillas into the oven to warm, 1-2 mins.
TIP: Add a splash of water to the pork if you feel it's become too dry.
- Divide the warmed tortillas, pork and black bean mixture, salad leaves, chipotle tomatoes, pickled onion, lime and mayo separately.
- Assemble your own at the table.
