  2. When the potatoes are tender, drain and add the plant-based milk and vegan butter. Mash until silky smooth. Season to taste.

  3. Spread the mashed potato mixture onto one side of half of the tortillas, spreading to within 1cm or the edge.

  4. Sprinkle 50g of vegan shredded cheese, a large pinch of roasted peppers, and the same of coriander on top or the mashed potatoes and fold over the other side of the tortilla to make a sort of sandwich.

  5. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
