Fil-mex burrito

Ingredients

MEAT:

• ½ chicken breast, deboned, cubed, seasoned with salt and pepper

BURRITO SAUCE:

• 60 grams mayo (any)
• 30 grams mustard
• 20 ml. EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
• 10 ml. cane vinegar
• 2 grams brown sugar
• 3 grams salt
• 2 grams ground black pepper
• OPTIONAL 3 grams MSG

FRYING NEED:

• 50 ml. EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)

VEGGIES:

• 3 pieces ultra fresh lettuce (Romaine or iceberg or any you prefer)
• 1 small tomato, cubed
• ½ cucumber, peeled, cubed
• ¼ white onion, cubed
• ½ peeled carrot, cubed

FILLINGS TO COOK:

• 1 small sweet potato (kamote which renders that sweet flavorful bite) cubed, boiled to desired doneness. Set aside.
• 100 grams beans. Pinto beans are not readily available in my country that I utilized ordinary kidney beans. With plenty of tap water, pressure cook for 20 minutes (count starts when “sizzle” begins) drain and mash with potato masher to a paste consistency. Set aside.

WRAPPERS:

• 3 pieces Tortilla wrappers (these are readily available in supermarkets)
• 3 square or rectangular foil enough to cover entire Tortilla when rolled with fillings.

TOP GARNISH:

• 100 grams grated cheddar cheese
• 3 grams chili powder
• 8 grams salt
• 2 grams ground black pepper
