  • 400 g can no added salt black beans, rinsed, drained
  • ½ red capsicum, finely chopped
  • 1 roma tomato, cut into 1 cm dice
  • cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons pickled sliced jalapenos, finely chopped

Method

Step 1

Lightly spray both sides of each wonton wrapper with olive oil. Press wrappers into a 24 hole non-stick mini muffin tray or 2 x 12 hole (cup capacity) non-stick muffin trays (see Tips).

Step 2

Cook in 180 °C oven (fan-forced) for 7-8 minutes or until golden. Cool in tray.

Step 3

Coarsely mash avocado with lime juice in a bowl. Stir in half the onion and ¼ cup coriander.

Step 4

Place remaining onion and coriander in a large bowl. Stir in beans, capsicum, tomato, corn, jalapeno and vinegar.

Step 5

Spoon 1 teaspoon mashed avocado into each wonton cup. Top with bean mixture. Dollop remaining avocado on top. Garnish with coriander sprigs.

Tips

  • Wonton cups can be made in either mini or regular sized muffin pans.
  • Wonton wrappers are available from the refrigerated cabinet in major supermarkets and from Asian grocery stores.
  • Unfilled wonton cups will keep for 2 days in an airtight container. Add filling just before serving. Use up any excess filling in salads, wraps or sandwiches.
