Instructions
1
- Preheat your oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add half the garlic and stir-fry for 1 min.
- Add the rice and stir until coated, 30 secs.
2
- Add 300ml salted water (double for 4p) to the pot and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid.
- Cook for 10 mins, then remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
- Meanwhile, drain and rinse the beans in a sieve. Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks. Zest and halve the lime.
3
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add the remaining garlic and the Mexican spice mix to the pan.
- Fry until fragrant, 1 min.
- Stir in the tomato paste, beans, stock and 150ml water (double for 4p).
- Bring to the boil then simmer until the sauce has thickened, 5-6 mins.
4
- Meanwhile, halve the avocado and remove the pit. Use a tablespoon to scoop out the flesh. Chop into 1cm chunks.
- Squeeze half the lime juice into a medium bowl.
- Stir in 1 tbsp oil (double for 4p) then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Stir the avocado and tomato through the dressing.
5
- When the beans are ready, add the lime zest and honey to the pan. Squeeze in the remaining lime juice.
- Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Pop half the tortillas (double for 4p) in the oven to warm, 1-2 mins.
6
- Fluff up the rice with a fork, divide between bowls and spoon over the Mexican spiced beans.
- Top with the tomato and avocado salsa.
- Add a dollop of creme fraiche.
- Serve with the tortillas on the side for dipping.
