Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 flour tortilla
2 tablespoons refried beans
2 tablespoons shredded cheese
2 tablespoons ghee

Steps:

  • Heat your cast iron skillet over low heat for 5 minutes.
  • Spread the refried beans in a thin layer on the tortilla. (As thin as you would spread peanut butter on a sandwich). Sprinkle on the cheese. Fold up the burrito like an envelope, and press to keep it thin.
  • Add the ghee to the cast iron skillet. Start the burritos folded side DOWN. Cook for 8-10 minutes over low heat until very crispy. Flip, and cook another 8-10 minutes until very crispy.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool. The wire rack will prevent it from creating steam and getting soggy on the bottom.
  • Serve warm. Watch your kids enjoy the best burrito of their lives!

Categories     Tacos & Burritos

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 to 1 1/2 lb hamburger meat
1 -16oz can(s) refried beans
1 pkg burrito seasoning mix ( can substitute taco seasoning mix mix )
1-10oz can(s) diced tomatoes and green chilies
1-8oz can(s) tomatoe sauce (optional)
1/4 c water
salt to taste
black pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
onion powder to taste
1-8oz pkg shredded cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp sour cream (optional)
1 medium onion chopped (optional)
8- 10 flour tortillas ( large )

Steps:

  • 1. Cook hamburger meat with salt , pepper , garlic powder and onion powder till well done in a deep frying pan or large pot if you have only one fry pan because you will need your pan for later .Drain off grease , then place meat into a medium size serving bowl lined with 4 paper towels . Take 2 more paper towels and press the meat so that all of the grease is absorbed . Return to pan after you have wiped the grease from it too.
  • 2. Add the next 4 ingredients, stirring till completely mixed together . Add water mixing well . Turn heat up to medium high till it starts bubbling then reduce heat and let simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes or long enough for most of the liquids to evaporate, stirring constantly all the while so as not to scorch . Remove from heat
  • 3. In another deep frying pan, pour your favorite cooking oil in ( about the amount you would normally use to fry chicken ) heat to MED high . Meanwhile open the tortilla package , leaving the tortillas inside of it . Place the whole package inside of a microwave and heat for about 30 seconds to soften them up .
  • 4. Take a tortilla and spread about 2 tbsp of sour cream in the middle . Add about 1/2 cup meat, bean mixture spreading it to but not all the way to the edges leaving plenty of room to fold it over , add 1/4 cup onions then 1/4 cup of cheese sprinkling each evenly over mixture . Omit the sour cream and onions if you don't like them and substitute onions for more cheese .
  • 5. Using both hands , keep rolling one side of tortilla over filling while bringing the ( ends ) sides of tortilla inward tucking them inside snugly to hold in the filling .
  • 6. Making sure the oil is plenty hot first , add burrito folded side down. Using a spatula, immediately press it down lightly so it won't come unfolded as it starts to cook . They cook fast so turn over after a couple minutes or less depending on how hot the oil is, to make sure they don't burn . They should be a nice golden color when done . Place on a paper towel lined platter or plate to soak up oil .
  • 7. Top with your choice of picante sauce , sour cream , guacamole, chopped purple onions, chopped tomatoes ,sliced black olives, a green salad or top with all of them at the same time. ENJOY ! :>D

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients whenever possible. Fresh beans, flavorful cheese, and organic vegetables will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcook the beans. They should be tender but still retain their shape.
  • Be careful not to overfill the burritos. Otherwise, they will be difficult to roll and seal.
  • Use a nonstick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to cook the burritos. This will help prevent them from sticking.
  • Serve the burritos immediately with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, salsa, and sour cream.

Conclusion:

Crispy bean and cheese burritos are a delicious and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover beans and cheese.

These burritos are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, you can use different types of beans, cheese, and vegetables. You can also add spices or herbs to the bean mixture to give them a more flavorful kick.
