Black Bean-Cauli Tacos With Homemade Tortillas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Tortillas:
    1 1/4 cups white whole wheat flour, divided
    1/2 cup lukewarm water
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    olive oil cooking spray
    2 teaspoons vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance(R))
    Cauliflower-Bean Filling:
    1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1/2 yellow onion, sliced
    1 serrano pepper, sliced
    2 tablespoons ketchup
    1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium black beans, drained
    ground black pepper to taste
    1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Preparation
    Mix 1 cup flour, water, and salt together to make a soft dough. Spray dough and work surface with olive oil; knead dough until smooth but still a little sticky.
    Set dough aside and cover with a warm, damp cloth. Let dough rest for at least 10 minutes.
    Preheat a large griddle while rolling out the tortillas.
    Divide dough into 8 equal parts. Form into smooth balls and flatten the tops. Roll balls in 1/4 cup flour and roll out into 6-inch circles. Dust rolling pin or work surface very lightly with flour if dough sticks. Brush tortillas with vegan margarine on one side.
    Place tortillas on the preheated griddle greased-side down. Cook until tortillas change color and start puffing up, about 10 seconds. Flip over and press puffed parts lightly with a flat spatula. Flip again. Cook just until golden-brown spots appear on both sides; tortillas should still be soft and pliable.
    Keep tortillas stacked together on and under a cloth to keep from drying out.
    Pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor until chopped into rice-sized pieces.
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook cauliflower, onion, and serrano pepper until softened, about 5 minutes. Mix in ketchup, chili powder, and cumin.
    Process black beans in the food processor until smooth. Stir into the cauliflower mixture until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Use 1/4 cup of the mixture for each tortilla.
