Chorizo sweet potato and blackbean wraps

Chorizo sweet potato and blackbean wraps

I concocted this dish the other night basically out of a desire to eat all my favourite things in one go. Warm heat from the chorizo, that sweet fleshy potato and cool sour cream all in fresh flatbreads - its just brilliant.

Getting it done

Start off by getting a large fry pan on the heat with some olive or rapeseed oil. Whilst the pan heats peel your potato and chop into small 1cm square cubes. Toss those in the pan and start browning off, about 5 minutes in add a good dazzle of honey and about a teaspoon of chilli flakes with a grind of salt and pepper and stir to coat.

Chop a red onion and add to the potato along with the cubed chorizo. You can buy this pre chopped in portions, if not get yourself a cured chorizo ring and use about half.

Once the potato and onion are soft and the chorizo has released its oils take off the heat and toss in a handful of spinach. Once it's wilted you'll want I stir it into the mix.

Take your carton of black beans and drain off about half the water, add the remaining water and beans to a medium sauce pan.

Add 2 teaspoons of smoked paprika, a chopped garlic clive and a handful of chopped flat-leaf parsley to the beans with a dollop of sour cream, salt and pepper.

Cook the beans for about 5 minutes until the water has evaporated and the beans begin I fry slightly, then remove from the heat and cover.

Toss your flatbreads under the grill for minute on each side. Serve the chorizo mix and bean dip in the breads with more sour cream, parsley and some homous.

In the words of Mr Peter Kay - its a taste sensation.

This is testament to the fact

This is testament to the fact
That I'm no acrobat
No lyrical gymnast
No active satirist
Or satiric activist
Of passive pacifist

By taking a stand
I don't need to stand
Or take a seat in a power
For there is no power in a seat
Or those who sit

Only those who refuse to stop
Or go where no one else will
Who will take the red and the blue pill
Head down the rabbit hole and climb back up to see it spill
Out in living water
A well spring of beauty and perfection
With a broken inflection
Of the pain at the bottom of the pit
Where the quark is split between the changeable and the in hanging
One that can change it all and back again

Because power is like sinking sand
The deeper you get in the deeper you dig to get out
So if I sink in the sand or stand on the pillar
Im still no further along to the killer instinct that you need to rule the world
