Step 1:

Pumpkin & Black Bean Burritos recipe picture 2Simmer the diced pumpkin for ten minutes or until soft, and drain. If you're lucky enough to live in a country that has tinned black beans, then open up your can, and drain. Otherwise, add 100g (3.5 ounces) black beans to a saucepan with about 4-5 cups of boiling water and simmer for 60-90 minutes, or until soft. Drain any remaining water.

Step 2:
