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 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6).
- Step 2
Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1.5cm cubes. Finely chop the red onion and mince the garlic.
- Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with half the olive oil, half the smoked paprika, half the cumin, salt and pepper.
- Step 4
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking tray and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelised.
- Step 5
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, make the sauce. Heat the remaining olive oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.
- Step 6
Add the minced garlic, remaining smoked paprika and cumin, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Step 7
Stir in the chipotle paste, chopped tomatoes, and vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Step 8
Drain and rinse the black beans. Stir the roasted sweet potatoes and black beans into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 9
Warm the tortillas according to package instructions.
- Step 10
Spoon the sweet potato and black bean mixture into the centre of each tortilla. Fold them into a parcel or roll them up.
- Step 11
Arrange the filled tortillas seam-side down in an ovenproof dish.
- Step 12
Pour any remaining sauce over the tortillas. Sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese.
- Step 13
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the tortillas are heated through.
- Step 14
Garnish with fresh coriander before serving.
