Pork Tacos with Refried Beans and Avocado Green Salad (by Biggs)

Jamie Oliver calls this recipe 'ultimate pork tacos with spicy black beans and avocado green salad' but I couldn't find any black beans and 'ultimate' is probably a bit beyond me. It was good though.

The pork was diced and fried with paprika and fennel seeds. I used a can of refried beans and cooked them up with spring onions, garlic and cumin.

The tacos were also served with an ungainly Jamie-style salad of lettuce, coriander, avocado, tomato, chili, apple, soy sauce and lime.

The chilies were thanks to Nancy who sent me home with some treats last night. I made G try them for heat and he suggested they were probably just capsicums.....he was wrong, my brain almost exploded.

Whilst this wasn't a 30 minute meal I thought I'd give it a crack within half and hour anyway. G was surprisingly tolerant of dinner being 5 minutes and 35 seconds late.

Editors note: This is in fact a Jamie Oliver 15 minute meal so apologies to our readership for Biggs' stupidity, the recipe is also grossly misrepresented so apologies to Mr O too.

I don't know what Biggs did with the extra 5 minutes and 35 seconds, but it was worth it.

I liked the reheated refried beans. I've never thought to add flavourings to refried beans.
