Filling and Assembly

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine the black beans, corn, red bell pepper, onion, cilantro, cumin powder, chili powder, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

2

Assemble the Flautas

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side to make them pliable. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling onto one end of each tortilla, roll it tightly, and secure with a toothpick if necessary.

3

Fry the Flautas

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the rolled flautas seam side down in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

4

Serve

Serve hot with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or sour cream. Enjoy!
