Create delicious Honduran baleadas by loading tortillas with toppings like refried beans, eggs, chorizo, cheese, and avocado for the perfect party snack.
Ingredients:
  • 500 g plain flour plus extra for dusting
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • groundnut oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 onions
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 x 400g tins of kidney beans
  • 2 tablespoons soured cream
  • white wine vinegar
  • 12 fresh red chillies to serve
  • 1 bunch of fresh coriander (30g), to serve
  • 12 limes to serve
  • 220 g higher-welfare chorizo
  • 150 g Cheddar cheese
  • 150 g feta cheese
  • 24 ripe avocados
  • 46 large free-range eggs
  • chilli sauce
Instructions:
  • Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl, add 2 teaspoons sea salt, create a well in the center, pour in 125ml oil and about 200ml warm water. Mix with a butter knife until a dough forms, adding more water if needed. Tip dough onto a floured surface, knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Return to bowl, cover and let prove for 1 hour. Heat a bit of oil in a pan, sauté garlic, onion, and cumin for 10 minutes until soft. Add drained kidney beans, soured cream, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, then mash or blend beans to desired texture. Divide dough into 12 pieces, roll into balls, flatten, then roll out into tortillas. Dry-fry tortillas in a hot pan for 1 minute each side. Keep warm. Prepare toppings - fry chorizo, grate Cheddar, crumble feta, slice avocados, and fry eggs. Heat bean mixture. Spread beans on tortillas, top with chili, coriander. Serve with lime wedges. Enjoy!
