Instructions

Start the Garlic Rice
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

Pop a deep saucepan (with a tight-fitting lid) on medium heat with the oil (see pantry for amount - use butter if you'd prefer)

Add half the garlic and stir-fry for 1 min. Stir in the rice until coated, 1 min. 

Prep Time
2

Add 0.25 tsp salt (if you'd like) and the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) to the garlic pan and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid. 

Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Meanwhile, drain and rinse the mixed beans in a sieve.

Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks. Zest and halve the lime.

Create your Tortilla Clouds
3

Cut each tortilla (2 per person) in half. Slice each half into a cloud shape (use scissors if easier).

Place on a large baking tray in a single layer and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper if you'd like. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary. 

Bake on the top shelf in the oven until lightly golden brown and crispy, 5-7 mins. TIP: Keep an eye on them to make sure they colour evenly.

Kids Step: Help cut the tortillas into cloud shapes using a pair of scissors - get a grown up to help if needed!

Cook the Beans
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. 

Add the remaining garlic and the Mexican style spice mix to the pan. Fry for 1 min. 

Stir in the tomato puree, mixed beans, vegetable stock paste, water for the sauce and honey (see pantry for both amounts). 

Bring to the boil, then simmer until the sauce has thickened, 5-6 mins. 

Time to Salsa
5

Meanwhile, halve the avocado and remove the stone. Use a tablespoon to scoop the flesh out onto a board. Chop the avocado into 1cm chunks. 

Squeeze half the lime juice into a medium bowl and combine with the olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount). Season with salt and pepper if you'd like. Mix in the avocado and tomato. 

When the beans are ready, add the lime zest. Squeeze in the remaining lime juice and stir to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper if you'd like. 

Kids Step: Squeeze the lime juice into the bowl and drizzle in the olive oil, then mix all together with the avocado and tomato!

Serve
6

Fluff up the rice with a fork and share between the bowls.

Spoon over the beans. Top with the tomato and avocado salsa, then add a dollop of soured cream if you'd like. 

Serve with the tortilla clouds on the side for dipping. 

Enjoy!
