Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Cut each of the tortillas into 8-10 triangles and spread over two large baking sheets. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle over the paprika. Bake for 7-8 mins until crisp and leave to cool.

Heat the grill to high. Grill the peppers, skin-side up, for 7-10 mins until charred and soft. Leave to cool. Peel off and discard the skins, slice into strips and toss with the beans and parsley.
