Shop these in one order
Mello puts these ingredients on one shopping list with the rest of your week, and anything two recipes share is added together. The list then goes to Sainsbury's in the UK or Careem Quik in the UAE.
Add to a shopping listHow the shopping list works →- Step 1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (170°C fan/Gas Mark 5).
- Step 2
Place the diced sweet potato on a baking tray, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 20-25 minutes until tender.
- Step 3
While the sweet potato is roasting, heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped red onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Step 4
In a bowl, combine the roasted sweet potato, drained black beans, sautéed red onion and garlic, cumin, chilli powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mash lightly with a fork to combine.
- Step 5
In a small saucepan, heat the passata and vegetable stock. Bring to a gentle simmer and season with salt and pepper.
- Step 6
Warm the tortillas slightly to make them pliable (you can do this in a dry pan or microwave).
- Step 7
Spoon the sweet potato and black bean mixture into the centre of each tortilla. Roll them up tightly.
- Step 8
Pour a thin layer of the passata sauce into the bottom of an ovenproof dish. Place the rolled enchiladas seam-side down on top of the sauce.
- Step 9
Pour the remaining passata sauce over the enchiladas, ensuring they are well covered.
- Step 10
Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
- Step 11
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is heated through.
- Step 12
Let stand for a few minutes before serving. Serve with a dollop of plain yogurt or a side salad if desired.
