LET’S MAKE IT
From pan to plate.
- 01
Heat half a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the beans, cumin, paprika, water, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 5 minutes, then mash roughly with a fork.
- 02
Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry pan until flexible. Spread beans over half of each tortilla and fold gently.
- 03
Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining oil over medium heat and cook the folded tortillas in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until crisp. Turn carefully with a spatula.
- 04
Serve immediately with cabbage, salsa, and lime wedges.
