  1. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and peppers to the pan and cook for 10 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the paprika and continue to cook for 1 min. Pour in the tinned tomatoes and the stock and cook for a further 15 mins until reduced. Add the black beans and cook for a further 5 mins to warm through.

  3. Remove the pepper mixture from the heat, stir in the remaining lime juice and season to taste.
  4. Divide between the 4 wraps, sprinkle over the cheese and drizzle with the yogurt dressing. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander to serve.
