In a large frying pan, warm the oil and cook the carrots and onions for 5-8 minutes until soft, adding a little water if they begin to stick. Add the chilli powder and cook it for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and beans or lentils, bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer 5-10 minutes, stirring now and then, until thick. Take off the heat and season well.

Heat the grill to high. Smear a spoonful of the bean mixture over the base of a large ovenproof dish. Lay a tortilla on a board, add a few tablespoons of filling, fold in the ends and roll up tightly. Place seam-side down in the dish and repeat. Spoon the leftover filling over the top.

Combine the yogurt and grated cheese with a little seasoning and spoon it over the enchiladas, then grill for a few minutes until golden and bubbling. Serve alongside a green salad.
