3. Drain and rinse the black beans.
4. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cajun spice with a pinch of salt and pepper and 2 tbsp of water. Add the tofu slices and gently mix to coat. Leave to soak for 10 minutes.
5. Boil some water in a medium size saucepan. Add the sweet potato chunks and boil for 25 minutes.
