Method
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and cook the onion for 5 minutes until softened.
Add the garlic, black beans, ground cumin and 1 tablespoon of the chilli powder and cook for 3 minutes, lightly mashing some of the beans, then remove from the heat and set aside.
In a saucepan, whisk the remaining chilli powder and the plain flour into a little of the vegetable stock to form a smooth paste.
Whisk in the chopped tomatoes and remaining stock and simmer for 8 minutes until thickened into a sauce, then season with salt.
Warm the corn tortillas for 20 seconds on each side to make them pliable, then fill each with the bean mixture and a third of the cheddar, and roll tightly.
Arrange the rolled tortillas seam-side down in a baking dish, pour over the chilli sauce and scatter with the remaining cheddar.
Bake at 200°C for 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
