SWEET POTATO BURRITOS



Sweet Potato Burritos image

Adapted from one of the best vegetarian recipes on the internet, http://allrecipes.com/recipe/addictive-sweet-potato-burritos/ I like to make triple batches of this recipe, wrap each burrito, and freeze them for OAMC and for packed lunches. When I'm leaving for work, I can quickly grab a frozen burrito and a salad or a piece of fruit, and go. The burritos reheat easily in the microwave. This recipe is easy to assemble in large quantities.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 burritos, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups black beans, cooked or canned, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons mustard
1/2 teaspoon louisiana hot sauce (to taste)
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
6 cups sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
12 (10 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • If using dried black beans, soak overnight, and cook with a piece of dashi kombu seawood to make the beans softer. This step is optional, but dashi kombu, sold in asian foods stores, is wonderful for making beans softer and easier to digest.
  • I find the easiest way to prepare large quantities of mashed sweet potatoes, is to throw all the unchopped, unpeeled sweet potatoes into a large stock pot, and boil until tender enough to easily poke a bread knife through. Then, drain all the water down the sink, and leave the sweet potatoes to cool slightly, and finish draining. After they have been boiled and drained, the skins slip off easily; much less work than peeling. Then mash them, and stir in salt and butter if you prefer.
  • In a large pot, stir together the cooked or canned beans, cumin, mustard, soy sauce, and hot sauce. Taste, and add more seasonings if you like. Try to mash the beans slightly.
  • Put 1/2 cup of bean mixture onto each tortilla. Top with cheese, if desired. Top with 1/2 cup mashed sweet potato. Wrap each tortilla.
  • For a crispy outside, arrange the assembled burritos on a cookie sheet, and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes. Serve warm.
  • For freezer food, do not pre-bake the burritos. Wrap individually with plastic wrap, and freeze.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of sweet potatoes: For a more complex flavor, use a mix of orange-fleshed and purple-fleshed sweet potatoes.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes until they are tender and slightly caramelized: This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a flavorful black bean mixture: The black bean mixture should be packed with flavor, so use a variety of spices and herbs. You can also add other vegetables, such as corn or bell peppers.
  • Use a creamy sauce: The creamy sauce will help to balance out the flavors of the sweet potatoes and black beans. You can use a variety of sauces, such as sour cream, Greek yogurt, or guacamole.
  • Top the burritos with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include shredded cheese, salsa, and cilantro.
