About this dish

Seasoned beef, rice, black beans, cheese and salsa all fit inside one large flour tortilla, making a full meal to eat by hand.

Beans and rice make it filling, while salsa and sour cream cut through the fatty beef and melted cheese. The tortilla needs to be warm and bendy when you roll it, or the edges crack and the filling escapes.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Drain the 200 g canned black beans well and loosen any clumps in the 150 g cooked rice.

    Set out the shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole in portions so the tortillas can be filled quickly while still warm.

  2. 2

    Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and add 300g ground beef.

    Cook for 7 to 8 minutes, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until no pink remains.

  3. 3

    Add 1.5 tablespoons taco seasoning and mix it evenly into the beef.

    Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the moisture reduces and the seasoning clings, then turn off the heat.

  4. 4

    Warm the 2 large flour tortillas for 20 seconds each in the microwave, or heat both sides for 10 seconds each in a dry pan.

    Roll them while they are warm and flexible so the edges do not crack or tear.

  5. 5

    Lay the rice, beef, black beans, shredded cheese, and salsa in a long line across the lower center of each tortilla.

    Leave about 5 cm clear at both ends, then add thin lines of sour cream and guacamole to avoid overfilling.

  6. 6

    Fold both ends over the filling, then pull the lower edge over the filling and roll tightly with the seam underneath.

    Wrap in foil to set the shape, then toast seam-side down over medium heat for 2 minutes per side and slice diagonally.

Tips

Do not overfill the burrito - too much filling makes it impossible to roll properly.
