Preparation

  1. Cook the Rice
     Wash and soak the rice for 15 – 20 minutes. Heat oil, add jeera, then add rice and sauté lightly. Add water and salt, cook until fluffy and separate.
  2. Prepare the Filling
     Heat oil in a pan. Add onions and sauté until soft. Add ginger-garlic paste, then toss in capsicum and corn. Add cooked rajma/chole and spices. Cook for 5 – 7 minutes until everything is well combined.
  3. Flavor Boost
     Add a squeeze of lemon juice and fresh coriander for a fresh, tangy touch.


Steps to Assemble the Burrito

  1. Warm the tortilla slightly.
  2. Spread mint chutney or vegan mayo in the center.
  3. Add a layer of jeera rice.
  4. Top with the spicy filling.
  5. Add extra chutney if desired.
  6. Fold tightly into a burrito shape.
  7. Lightly toast on a pan for a crispy outer layer (optional).


Tips for Best Results

  • Use long-grain rice like Miniket for a non-sticky texture.
  • Don’t overfill the burrito – it makes wrapping difficult.
  • Add pickled onions for extra zing.
  • You can include lettuce or cabbage for crunch.
  • For extra richness, drizzle vegan cheese sauce.
