Ingredients

1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 clove Garlic (crushed)
1 tsp Paprika (smoked)
1 tsp Cumin (ground)
1 tsp Coriander (ground)
400 g Tomatoes (chopped)
400 g Black Beans (drained and rinsed)
3 Wholewheat Wraps
6 Quails' eggs

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan, over a medium heat. Add the crushed garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin and ground coriander. Cook for a few minutes, stirring all the time, then add the chopped tomatoes and black beans. Bring up to a simmer and allow the mixture to gently bubble away for 10-15 minutes until starting to thicken. Take off the heat and set aside to cool. This part of the recipe can be pre-prepared up to 3 days ahead.
Pre-heat the oven to 200°C conventional or 180°C fan.
Use scissors to cut the wraps into rough rounds – large enough for each round to be pressed into a hole of a muffin tin to create a cup.
Spoon the cooled bean mixture into each wrap ‘cup’, pressing down to make a little divot in each. Crack the quail eggs one by one, pouring each one into a divot as you go.
Put the muffin tray into the pre-heated oven and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes, until the quail eggs are just set. Serve straight away!

Notes

Quails’ eggs can be tricky to crack so have some spares on hand! Older kids and adults can have a whole chicken egg instead.

For Egg-free, switch the quails’ eggs to crumbled feta cheese

We love Crosta & Mollica wholemeal wraps as they only contain simple organic ingredients. However use whatever wraps you have to hand. Also choose gluten-free wraps if needed.

Per serving. Nutrition content in food is never consistent, so take these estimates with a pinch of salt! Also, our recipes tend to use low-GI carbs and sugars, so these values are not directly comparable with shop-bought UPFs.
