Instructions

1

a) If you don't have a microwave, heat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7 for the tortillas.

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

c) Chop the tomato into 1cm pieces. Set aside for later.

d)Trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice widthways. Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve.

2

a) Next, heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

b) Once hot, add the pork mince.

c) Fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

3

a) Stir in the tomato puree, garlic and chipotle paste (add less if you'd prefer things milder). Cook, stirring, for 1 min.

4

a) Next, add the chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) to the pan. Stir in the black beans and use a masher or the back of a fork to gently crush them.

b) Season with salt and pepper. Stir together and bring to a simmer.

c) Cook until thickened, 5-6 mins. Add a splash of water if it gets too thick.

5

a) Meanwhile, pile the tortillas onto a plate. Heat them through in the microwave, 850W: 50 secs / 750W: 1 min, until warm and soft.

b) If you're using the oven, lay the tortillas onto a baking tray and place on the middle shelf to warm through, 1-2 mins.

6

a) When ready, taste and season the pork mixture with salt and pepper if needed.

b) Share the tortillas between your plates (3 per person). Top with the pork and black bean mixture, sliced lettuce and tomatoes - as much as you’d like.

c) Crumble over the cheese to finish. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in!

Enjoy!
