Instructions
- Drain and rinse the black beans. Mix cumin and smoked paprika together.
- Heat oil in a pan over medium-high. Add the turkey mince and cook, breaking it up, 4–5 min until browned all over.
- Add the spice mix and stir through for 1 min until fragrant. Add the black beans, stir to combine, and cook 2–3 min until warmed through and slightly saucy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Warm the tortilla wraps — 30 seconds per side in a dry pan, or 20 seconds in the microwave.
- Lay out the wraps and spread the salsa down the centre. Divide the mince mixture between them, then top with grated cheddar.
- Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Optionally, press seam-side down in the warm pan for 1 min to seal and add a little crunch. Serve with sour cream.
