  5. 5

    Add oil to a small bowl, dip you fingers in it and spread oil over each tortilla.

  6. 6

    Once bean mixture is simmering, dip each side of the tortilla using tongs or your hands. Quickly place the dipped tortilla on a plate, add cheese, then fold or roll the tortilla.Continue until all the tortillas are dipped and filled.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately with extra cheese on top and toppings like sliced avocado, onions, cilantro, jalapenos, crema, or salsa.
