Steps:
- Place beans and cumin in small bowl; partially mash. Mix 2 teaspoons olive oil and lime juice in medium bowl; add coleslaw, green onions, and cilantro and toss to coat. Season slaw to taste with salt and pepper.
- Heat 3 teaspoons olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tortillas in single layer. Spoon 1/4 of bean mixture onto half of each tortilla; cook 1 minute. Fold tacos in half.

BLACK BEAN TACOS WITH AVOCADO AND SPICY ONIONS
Spicy pickled onions add brightness and tang to these hearty black bean tacos. The filling is a bit like chili but without the tomato, and perfect to wrap up in a tortilla. You can make the black beans up to 5 days ahead; they even freeze well. Then just warm them up, along with the tortillas, right before serving. The spicy onions will last for weeks in the fridge. Use them on everything: soups, salads, even grilled cheese sandwiches.

Steps:
- Make the spicy onions: Squeeze the lime into a bowl and add the onion or shallot, jalapeño, salt and sugar to the juice. Set aside while you make the black beans.
- Prepare the beans: Heat a large skillet, then add 2 tablespoons oil. When oil is hot, add the onion and bell pepper and sauté until soft and golden, about 10 minutes. If the pan looks dry, drizzle in a little more oil.
- Add the garlic and jalapeño and sauté until fragrant, 1 minute. Stir in tomato paste, chili powder, oregano and cumin, and sauté until fragrant. Add the beans and a few large pinches of salt and let simmer until the flavors meld, about 15 minutes.
- Taste and add more salt, chili powder and oregano to taste. Serve beans with tortillas and avocado and top with the pickled onions and jalapeño and some of their liquid, adding any of the garnishes you like.

Steps:
- For the spicy pinto beans: Soak the pinto beans in water to cover overnight. Drain and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large enameled Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion and pepper and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the beans, cumin, paprika, guajillo chile, cayenne if using and enough water to just cover the beans and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover with the lid slightly ajar. Cook until just tender, about 1 hour, checking the water level every so often and adding more water if the mixture dries out. Stir in 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
- Add the flour and butter to a small cast-iron skillet and stir to create a paste. Cook over medium-low heat until the paste forms a golden roux, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the guajillo chile from the beans, stir in the roux and bring back to a simmer. Add the cheese and tomatoes, then continue to cook until the mixture thickens slightly, 5 to 10 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- For the cabbage: In a small bowl, combine the cabbage, cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
- For the tacos: To each taco shell or tortilla, add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the spicy bean filling and some avocado slices and cabbage. Drizzle with 1 to 2 teaspoons Mexican sour cream. Serve immediately.
- Roll the masa into twelve 1-ounce balls; cover them with damp paper towels.
- Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Line a tortilla press with a piece of plastic wrap or a self-sealing bag that has been cut so that only the bottom is still attached. Put one of the dough balls slightly off center in the press and close to flatten. Carefully peel the tortilla from the plastic.
- Cook in 30-second increments, turning a few times, until warmed through and lightly toasted. Keep warm wrapped in clean kitchen towels and repeat with the remaining masa, stacking and rewrapping the tortillas so that they steam and stay pliable.

Steps:
- In a large frying pan, heat the oil and add the garlic. Fry until golden, then add the beans. Pour in the cider vinegar, honey and spices along with 1 tsp or more of salt, to taste. Cook until warmed through, crushing gently with the back of your wooden spoon, then set aside.
- The best way to make the guacamole is with a large stone pestle and mortar, but you can use a medium bowl and a flat-ended rolling pin instead. Crush the garlic, coriander and chilli into a rough paste. Scoop in the avocado with a little salt and crush roughly - you want it chunky, not smooth. Squeeze in the lime juice and set aside.
- Mix the salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Heat a griddle pan or steamer and quickly griddle the tortillas or steam a stack of them to warm up. Reheat the bean mixture.
- To serve, put 1-2 heaped tbsp of beans on a tortilla. Top with a big spoonful of guacamole and some salsa, hot sauce and a dollop of soured cream or yogurt.

EASY BLACK BEAN FRITTERS
This recipe is a black bean patty that can stand on its own - not a "burger" type recipe. I pan fry them, but I have a friend that is a die-hard deep fryer, and she prefers them that way.

Steps:
- Rinse and drain beans.
- In a separate bowl, mix all dry ingredients. Stir in egg white, and add milk slowly until a sticky, spreadable paste forms. NOT runny, but not a solid blob.
- Add beans, and mix well. I do not mash ALL of the beans. The texture of a few whole beans is nice. However, I do stir the mixture vigorously to break up and mash about 1/3 of the beans.
- Add cheese and stir. If the mixture seems too dry, add milk.
- Form into patties of the desired size, and pan fry for a couple of minutes on each side.
- Serve with sour cream, cheese, salsa, guacamole, etc.
- Yummy!

Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: For the creamiest guacamole, use ripe avocados. You can tell an avocado is ripe when it yields to gentle pressure.
- Season the black bean mixture well: The black bean mixture is the base of the fritters, so be sure to season it well. Use a variety of spices, such as chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder.
- Don't overcook the fritters: The fritters should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still soft and moist on the inside. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
- Serve the fritters with your favorite toppings: The fritters can be served with a variety of toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and cheese. You can also serve them with a side of rice or beans.
Conclusion:
Black bean taco fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a main course. With their crispy exterior and flavorful black bean filling, these fritters are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
