While the rice cooks, drain and rinse the black beans. In a frying pan, heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil over medium heat. Add the beans, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, mashing some of the beans with the back of a spoon to create a creamier texture.

Warm the corn tortillas. You can do this by briefly heating them in a dry frying pan for about 30 seconds per side, or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 30-60 seconds.
