Step 1
Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the sweet potatoes with the olive oil, half the cumin, half the smoked paprika, and a generous pinch of salt. Spread on a sheet pan in a single layer.
Step 2
Roast for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the edges are caramelized and the centers are tender.
Step 3
Meanwhile, warm the black beans in a small saucepan with the remaining cumin and paprika and a splash of water. Mash about a quarter of them with the back of a spoon for body. Season with salt.
Step 4
Char the tortillas directly over a gas flame for a few seconds per side, or warm them in a dry skillet.
Step 5
Slice the avocado. Build each taco with beans, sweet potato, avocado, a squeeze of lime, and a few cilantro leaves.
