Ingredients

Beans

Toppings

  • 1 oz (30 g) cheddar cheese (grated)
  • 1 chili pepper (sliced)
  • ½ small red onion (sliced)
  • ½ red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 2 radishes (sliced)
  • 2 sprigs cilantro/coriander, fresh
  • 4 tbsp low fat Greek Yogurt (or Skyr)
  • 4 corn tortillas (small)
  • Chipotle or Tabasco sauce (for serving, optional)

Instructions

  • Process the beans in the food processor until they are a homogenous bean paste. This will require some water so that it becomes smooth and creamy. Add small amounts bit by bit.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the minced garlic cloves and cook until the edges are golden brown. Add the black bean paste and spread over the garlic and oil base.
  • Fry the bean paste without moving it for about two minutes. Add the salt and black pepper to taste and mix the refried beans until you have a creamy bean puree that doesn’t stick to the sides or bottom of the pan, if needed add a little water to make it extra smooth.
