Preparation
Step 1
Microwave half the tortillas very briefly to warm them up (15 seconds or so). This ensures they don't crack when you roll them.
Step 2
Place 1 tortilla on a workbench - cover the rest with a tea towel to keep them warm.
Step 3
Place cheese down the middle of the tortilla, then top with 1/3 cup of beef, some corn, beans, then 1/4 cup rice.
Step 4
Roll the burrito up. (Note 2) Wrap in foil to hold it together.
Step 5
If you are serving it immediately, heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the burritos for around 4 to 5 minutes on each side to make the tortilla brown and heat the inside through.
Step 6
If freezing, place in the freezer. To reheat, you can either bake from frozen (with foil on) at 350F/180C for about 40 to 45 minutes, or thaw and cook in the skillet per above. You could microwave it (remove the foil) but I like my burritos a bit crispy!
