2 chiles in adobo sauce, minced, or 2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
Zest and juice of 2 oranges
Two 15-ounce cans black beans, drained and rinsed, about 4 cups
Sea salt to taste
18 corn tortillas
1 batch Spiked Sour Cream (recipe follows)

1. Sauté the onions in a saucepan over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Add water 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time to keep them from sticking. Add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the cumin, chiles in adobo sauce, orange zest and juice, and black beans.
2. Season with salt and puree the mixture in a food processor until smooth but still a little chunky.
