Ingredients
- 300 g tomato salsa
- 8 Mini tortilla wraps
- extra virgin olive oil spray
- 115 g grated cheese
FOR THE FILLING
- 1 red Bell Pepper/Capsicum
- ½ Aubergine/Eggplant
- ½ medium red onion
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 400 g Mixed Taco Beans
- 1 tbsp sour cream
- 85 g grated cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp jalapeño slices
- 70 g Frozen sweetcorn
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp ground coriander
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- Chop the pepper and the aubergine into 2cm/¾ inch cubes. Slice the red onion into 1cm/½ inch thick slices. Put the chopped vegetables in a bowl and add the olive oil, cumin, oregano and paprika, and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper. Mix well with your hands, then tip into the air fryer basket/drawer. Air fry at 180ºC/360ºF for 15 minutes or until the peppers have a barbecue-style grilled look.
- Whilst the veggies are cooking, put all the remaining filling ingredients in a mixing bowl and add half of the jar of salsa. When the veggies are cooked, add them to the bowl and stir.
- Divide the filling evenly amongst the tortilla wraps. Roll each one up tightly, tucking in the top and bottom as you roll, like you’re preparing a burrito. Place four of the enchiladas in a freezer container and freeze for another day, and place the remaining four enchiladas, side by side, into a 18cm/7 inch square foil tray/pan – or a ceramic dish, paper liner or silicone container also work well. Push them close together in the tray to keep them in place.
- Spray the tops of the enchiladas with olive oil to help them crisp up, then place the tray into the air fryer basket. Air fry at 180ºC/360ºF for 8 minutes, or until they are crisp and not soggy at all.
- Spoon over enough of the remaining salsa to cover the wraps, then sprinkle with the grated Cheddar. Continue to air fry at 160ºC/320ºF for 7 minutes, or until the salsa is piping hot and the cheese has melted.
- Serve with your favourite enchiladas sides – we had ours with sliced avocado and sour cream.
