Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 jalapeno chile, minced (remove seeds and ribs for less heat)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cans (15-ounces each) black beans, drained and rinsed
12 ounces beer, or 1 1/2 cups water
1 (10-ounce) package frozen corn
4 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish
8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (2 1/2-cups)
Sour cream and salsa, as a garnish (optional)
Cilantro, as a garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. With a paring knife, trim tortillas to fit a 9-inch springform pan. Use the bottom of the pan as a guide. Set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, jalapeno, garlic, and cumin; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add beans and beer, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer until liquid has almost evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in corn and scallions, and remove from heat. Taste and adjust for seasoning. Fit a trimmed tortilla in bottom of springform pan; layer with 1/4 of the beans and 1/2 cup of cheese. Repeat three times, using 1 cup cheese on top layer. Bake until cheese melts, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove side of pan; sprinkle pie with scallions. To serve, slice into wedges. This is most delicious served with a dollop of sour cream. Cilantro and a little salsa, on the side, is perfect with this.
