Ingredients:

2 tablespoons Olive Oil, or as needed

6 8-inch Flour Tortillas

Beef:

1/2 c / 125ml Water or Low Sodium Beef Stock

1 heaped tbsp Tomato Puree (Tomato Paste in the US)

Olive Oil, as needed

1 pound / 500g Lean Ground Beef

1/2 teaspoon each: Onion Powder, Cayenne Pepper, Cornstarch/Corn flour

1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

1 teaspoon each: Garlic Powder, Oregano, Salt

2 teaspoons each: Paprika, Cumin

Fillings:

1.5 c / 150g Cheddar, shredded

1 c Pickled Jalapenos, sliced (optional)

1 small White Onion, finely diced

1.5 c / 150g Monterey Jack, shredded

1 small Red Pepper (bell pepper), finely diced

1/2 can Black Beans, rinsed

Directions:

Add cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 teaspoons cumin, 2 teaspoons paprika, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and salt into a mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.

Place a pan on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add olive oil and allow it to become hot.

Add the bell pepper and onion, then saute for about 3 minutes or just until soft.

Add the ground beef, then cook for a few minutes until crumbly and brown. Stir in the spices until well blended.

Add 1 tablespoon of tomato puree, then stir and cook for about a minute to remove the raw taste.

Add 1/2 cup of water, then deglaze the pan by scraping it. Stir in 1/2 tsp of cornstarch followed by 1/2 can of black beans. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes. Move it into a large mixing bowl.

Wipe the pan clean with paper towels.

Coat each tortilla with oil, then put them into the hot pan. Top each with 1/4 cup of cheese, 1/2 cup of beef, jalapenos, and 1/4 cup of more cheese. Fold them in half and cook each side until golden brown.

Serve and enjoy!

Notes:

You can use any type of cheese for this recipe.

I highly recommend using lean beef for the best texture.

Make sure to cool the filling before using it.
