Add the garlic until they are aromatic, about 1 minute. ### Step 3 Simmer the black beans, vegetable stock, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper for 15 minutes, until the liquid has almost evaporated. ### Step 4 Add the unsalted butter, lime juice, and cilantro, and mash everything together with a potato masher. ### Step 5 Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface and divide the bean mixture among the 12 tortillas (about 3 tablespoons for each). Roll up each tortilla tightly and place it seam side down. ### Step 6 Line a large baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Spread about 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil evenly across it. ### Step 7 Place the taquitos seam side down on the baking tray, making sure that you are leaving at least 1/2 inch of space between each one. ### Step 8 Using a pastry brush, brush a thin layer of oil on each taquito. ### Step 9 Bake at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tortillas start to brown. ## :link: Source - [1]: <../assets/images/baked-black-bean-taquitos.jpg>
