Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Once hot, add the chorizo and fry until it starts to brown, 3-4 mins.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve. Pop half the beans into a bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork or a potato masher.
Once browned, transfer half the chorizo to another bowl and set aside.
Stir the chipotle paste (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and tomato puree into the frying pan with the remaining chorizo and cook, stirring, for 1 min.
Add the chopped tomatoes and water for the beans (see pantry for amount) to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, and a pinch of sugar.
Stir in the black beans (whole and mashed), then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 8-10 mins. Stir occasionally.
While the beans simmer, zest and cut the lime into wedges.
Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if easier).
When the beans have 6 mins left, lay the tortillas onto a large baking tray in a single layer and rub each with a little oil.
Season with salt and bake on the top shelf of the oven until golden and crispy, 4-6 mins. TIP: Keep an eye on them to make sure they don't brown too much.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, crack in each egg (see pantry for amount) and cook for 4-5 mins, or until the egg white is cooked and the yolk is the firmness you desire. Lower the heat as needed. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.
Share the crispy tortillas between 2 plates (2 tortillas per person).
Top evenly with the chorizo bean mixture and 1 fried egg each, then crumble over the Greek style salad cheese.
Sprinkle over the chives, lime zest and the remaining chorizo to finish. Serve with the lime wedges for squeezing over.
Enjoy!
