Ingredients
Ingredients for the bites:
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 onion (diced)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 250g mushrooms (chopped)
- Salt and pepper to season
- 1 Habanero chili, chopped or ½ tsp chilli flakes
- 1x 400g cans of kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
- 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
- ½ lemon (juiced)
- 100g Nestlé GoFree Corn Flakes
Guacamole ingredients
- 1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and mashed
- ½ lime, juiced
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 spring onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
- 1 plum tomato, diced
- ½ tsp garlic, minced
- ½ tsp ground cayenne pepper (optional)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180˚C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan, then add the onion and cook for 5 minutes
- Next, add garlic, cumin and mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the coriander, salt, pepper, and the chilli. Add the beans and stir, letting the mixture cook for 1 minute
- Blend the mixture in a food processor until it all comes together. Add ½ the coriander and 75g of the Corn Flakes, and blend again, until the mixture is well combined. Allow to stand for 5 minutes so that the Corn Flakes absorb the moisture and the mixture firms up
- Meanwhile, place the remaining 25g of Corn Flakes and coriander into a bowl and mash up the Corn Fakes so they break into large crumbs
- Take a tablespoon-scoop of the mixture and roll it into a ball in your hands. Roll it around in the bowl of Corn Flakes and coriander and place it on the baking sheet. Repeat until all the mixture is used
- Bake for 20 minutes, until even and golden brown
- Meanwhile prepare the guacamole by placing all the ingredients together in a bowl. Mix to combine and serve with the Mexican bites.
