- If using dry beans, soak by covering with 2 to 3 times their volume in water and bring to a vigorous boil in covered pot; boil for two min.
- Remove from heat and let beans soak for one or possibly two hrs. TO COOK: Use a ratio of 5 c. of water to 1 c. of beans; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer, begin timing once heat is lowered. Periodically check water level, add in when needed. Cook for 2 1/2 to 3 hrs.
- Pour vegetable oil in small skillet to about 1/2 inch depth. Fry the corn tortillas, one at a time, for about one minute on each side till they are crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
- Saute/fry the onions, garlic, cumin, coriander, and chiles in oil using a large skillet, till the onions are soft and translucent/soft, 5 - 10 min. Drain the cooked black beans and add in them to the skillet. Mash with a potato masher or possibly spoon till most of the beans are mashed. Add in the tomatoes and orange juice. Cover and simmer on very low heat for 5 - 10 min, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Add in salt to taste.
- Layer tortillas with shredded lettuce, then black beans, top with grated cheese, guacamole and salsa, if you like. Top with lowfat sour cream.
