Ingredients
For the tortilla bowls
- 1 muffin tray
- 2 teaspoon vegetable oil or cooking oil spray
- 6 small soft tortilla wraps
For the salad
- 2 cobs of corn I used frozen
- 10 new potatoes
- 1 red pepper cut into thick chunks
- Large handful of mango chunks I used frozen and defrosted
- 12 cherry tomatoes
- 4 tablespoon vegetable oil divided
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 can black beans (400g/15oz can), drained and rinsed
- 1 teaspoon chipotle paste
- 1 ripe avocado
- Juice of ½ a lime
For the dressing
- ½ cup (140g) plain yogurt (or vegan yogurt)
- ½ teaspoon chipotle paste
- 2 tablespoon Coriander (cilantro) finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- Pinch of sea salt
To serve
- Handful coriander/cilantro
Instructions
For the tortilla bowls
- Preheat the oven to 425F/220C, remove one of the oven racks, and position the one at lower-middle (this is to ensure there’s room for the tortillas without touching a rack above them).
- Place the flat tortillas into the oven for a few seconds to warm enough to be flexible. Don’t let them get crispy.
- Brush both sides of each tortilla lightly with oil (or use oil spray), then drape between the upturned muffin cups and lightly press the edges down to form them into a bowl shape. You may need to do this in two batches.
- Place in the oven and cook for 5-10 minutes until it begins to crisp up and turn slightly golden.
- Carefully remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
For the salad
- Boil the potatoes for and corn a few minutes until just cooked through. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- Thread the red pepper, mango and cherry tomatoes onto skewers. Thread the cooled potatoes onto skewers.
- Mix 3 tablespoons of the oil with oregano and cumin and brush over the corn, potatoes and skewers.
- Place onto a hot griddle pan or barbecue and cook for 10-15 minutes until seared, turning occasionally.
- While the vegetables are cooking, heat a frying pan on medium. Add the black beans, chipotle paste and 2 tablespoon of water. Stir gently, so the beans don’t break up, and heat gently.
- Cut the avocado into thick slices and sprinkle it with the lime juice. Add to the griddle pan and sear for a few minutes on each side.
For the dressing
- Mix all ingredients well in a bowl. Taste and add more chipotle paste if you like it hot.
To serve
- Pile the tortilla bowls with the grilled vegetables, chipotle beans and salad leaves. Drizzle with the chipotle sauce and coriander (cilantro) and serve immediately.
