I know this is a bit of a change in posting as all my recent ones have been about houses, but I wanted to share this recipe with anyone that wants it because it turned out *delicious*. I kind of made it up as I went along because I was making enchiladas and found out I only had 2 tortilla wraps in the fridge instead of 4 like I thought.
Ingredients:
2 tortilla wraps
1 can kidney beans
1 onion, diced
1 carrot, diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tblsp olive oil
700ml tomato passata
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp each of turmeric, paprika & ceyenne pepper
1 medium sweet potato, diced and steamed
1 cup grated cheese
Heat oil in a frypan and gently fry onion & garlic. Add all spices and stir. Add the kidney beans and carrots and fry for 3 minutes. Add the passata and bring to boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Layer a third of the bean mix, a tortilla, another third of the mix, a tortilla, and the remaining bean mix.
Arrange the sweet potato on top and sprinkle with the cheese, and bake at 200*c for 20 minutes covered with foil. After 20 minutes take the foil off and bake for another 5-10 minutes until golden brown. Let stand for 5 minutes and then serve with a green salad.
The recipe serves probably 4 or 5.
Anyway it's probably a bit unusual but it turned out really yummy. I guess it is a bit like a vegetarian shepherds pie... but not...
vegetarian shepherds pie?
