# Instructions:
01 -
Warm oil in a big pan, then sauté onion and garlic until golden. Toss in beef, break it up, and brown it. After that, mix in the seasoning, tomato paste, and water. Cook until a bit saucy—not dry. Let it cool for 10 minutes.
02 -
If not reheating the wrapped burritos later, warm the tortillas first following package details.
03 -
Spoon rice down slightly below the tortilla's middle. Add beef, lettuce, corn, black beans, onions, diced tomatoes, cilantro, and cheese on top.
04 -
Fold the bottom edge up over the mixture, bring the sides in, and roll tightly. Wrap each in foil.
05 -
Fry wrapped burritos in a dry pan over medium-high for a couple of minutes on each side. Or bake them at 180C/350F for 20 minutes until they're warm and slightly crisp.
# Notes:
01 -
Stays freezer-friendly if you use cabbage instead of lettuce.
02 -
Try adding extra vegetables when cooking up the beef filling.
03 -
Tastes amazing served with salsa and sour cream.
