Chop the sweet potato without peeling it.

Sauté onions in a pan until soft.

Add garlic and sauté for a couple of minutes until fragrant.

Add 2 teaspoons of cumin, 2 teaspoons of chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the sautéed onions and garlic.

Pour in a little veggie broth and add the chopped sweet potato.

Cover and let the sweet potato soften for a few minutes.

In another pan, heat oil to make the enchilada sauce.

Mix equal parts flour with the oil until browned.

Add spices to the flour mixture and whisk together.

Slowly add veggie broth to the mixture while whisking until smooth.

Simmer the enchilada sauce for 10 minutes.

Check the sweet potatoes; they should be soft but not mushy.

Rinse the black beans and add them to the sweet potato mixture.

Mash the sweet potato and black beans slightly, leaving some chunks for texture.

Add a splash of lemon juice for acidity instead of lime juice.

Shred cheese to add to the mixture, if desired.

Prepare tortillas for wrapping the filling.
