It was my time to cook tonight and I had no idea what to make.
Bianca and I went to the shop to buy her some sparkling water and hopefully be inspired by something.
In the shop, we went to, they put stickers on products that are about to be thrown away.
You get a nice discount (35%).
I found tortillas, meat and a bag with cut ' Mexican' vegetables on sale.
Mexican (Dutch) Burritos was the meal for tonight!
Pretty healthy I would think.
Bianca found a can of refried black beans. I never heard of it but she guaranteed to me it was good stuff.
I always like to try something new so I went it.
Let's cook.
Ingredients: Meat, refried black beans in a can, Salsa, red onion, garlic, cilantro (for me, Bianca hates it), Tortillas, bay leaves, dried lemongrass, cayenne pepper, paprika powder.
I cut the meat into strips and then put them in the meat grinder. It takes about a minute to grind everything.
I cut an onion and crushed some garlic and put them in a pan with some oil. I fried them for 2 minutes then I added the meat.
I added bay leaf, cayenne pepper, paprika powder and salt to the mixture.
I cooked the meat till just under. Then I added the vegetables.
While everything was cooking I made a quick guacamole by mixing together an avocado, red onion and cilantro.
Then came the most adventurous part of the dish. I opened the can of refried black beans. Now if you own a dog you understand my initial reaction :). But it tasted great. I added it to the mixture and also added some water.
I took a tortilla and put it in a hot pan (no oil) to warm up.
End result! A very simple yet tasty dish! I added the meat mixture in the middle and topped it off with the guacamole and salsa. Folding them is not my strength (as you can see) but it works!
