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!
