Ingredients

  • Seasoning Mix:
  • • 1 tsp each of onion powder, oregano & salt
  • • 2 tsp each of cumin powder & paprika
  • • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • • Pinch of salt
  • • Or just cheat and buy a packet of burrito seasoning mix from the supermarket!
  • Beef:
  • • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • • 3 garlic cloves
  • • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • • 500g organic lean beef mince
  • • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • • 3 tbsp water
  • Beef Burritos:
  • • 6 – 8 large soft wraps
  • • 600g cooked rice, warm
  • • 210g cabbage, finely sliced
  • • 1 x 195g tin of sweetcorn, drained
  • • 1 x 400g tin of black beans, drained
  • • 4 tomatoes, diced
  • • 2 shallots, chopped
  • • 175g grated cheddar cheese

Instructions

1

Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Add garlic and onion, cook until onion is lightly browned and fragrant.

2

Combine beef and heat, until meat is completely cooked through.

3

Add Seasoning mix and cook for about a minute. Then add tomato paste and water, cook for 5 minutes.

4

Set aside to cool for 10 minutes – piping hot filling will make the wrap soggy.

5

Place a soft wrap on a work surface. Place about 50g of rice just below the centre. Top with about 60g of beef, then some cabbage, corn, black beans, tomato, red onion and plenty of cheese.

6

Fold up the bottom to cover the filling then fold the edges in. Roll up tightly, then wrap in foil.
