Ingredients:
Makes 6
- 2 1/2 cups cooked black beans
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons chilli powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- salt
- black pepper
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 6 small flour tortillas
You’ll also need: 6 large pieces aluminum foil.
Instructions:

1. Add the black beans to a mixing bowl, along with the spices and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly with a fork, mashing the beans a little. Add the corn and grated cheese, and mix again to combine.
2. Scrunch a piece of foil into a shell shape, so that it will hold one of the small tortillas in the shape of a taco. Repeat with the remaining pieces of foil, until all six tortillas have their own foil case. Make sure the edges of the tortilla don’t overhang the edge of the foil too much, or they may catch and burn during cooking.
3. Divide the bean filling between the six tortillas.

4. Cook the tacos for a few minutes on a BBQ or a grill over a bonfire. Bear in mind that they don’t need a very high heat, as the tortillas will burn quite easily on the bottoms. Raise them up away from the flame if you find they’re burning underneath. Cook for just a few minutes, until the bean mixture is hot and the cheese has melted.
