# Ingredients You’ll Need:
→ Burrito Filling
01 -
60 g shredded mozzarella cheese
02 -
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
03 -
2 cloves garlic, minced
04 -
0.5 teaspoon salt
05 -
60 g shredded cheddar cheese
06 -
500 g steak, thinly sliced
07 -
60 ml salsa
08 -
4 large flour tortillas
09 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
10 -
1 small onion, diced
11 -
0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 -
300 g frozen French fries
13 -
60 ml sour cream
# Steps to Make It:
01 -
Chop each burrito in half, pour over the salsa and sour cream mixture, toss some cilantro on top, and dig in.
02 -
Mix sour cream with salsa in a small bowl till you’ve got a smooth sauce.
03 -
Warm up a clean skillet or grill pan, put burritos seam side down, and toast every side until crisp and golden, about two to three minutes each.
04 -
Bring the sides of the tortilla in first, then start rolling up tight from the bottom so nothing falls out.
05 -
Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar generously over each tortilla full of filling.
06 -
Put your warmed tortillas down and load the steak, onions, and fries mixture right in the middle.
07 -
Get your tortillas nice and soft with a quick zap in the microwave or in a dry skillet for around 15 seconds.
08 -
Pop the steak and onions back in with the hot fries in your skillet, stir them all together, and give them a couple minutes to mix flavors.
09 -
Keep using the same skillet and follow the package directions to cook your frozen fries until they’re crunchy and golden.
10 -
Move the steak and onions out to a plate and keep them aside for a bit.
11 -
Let the steak sizzle for about five minutes, giving it the occasional stir, until it’s all browned up.
12 -
Toss salt and pepper on your steak slices, then throw them into the hot skillet.
13 -
Mix in the minced garlic and let it cook just until you smell it—don’t let it sit too long or it’ll burn.
14 -
Cook diced onion in the oil until it goes soft and see-through. Shouldn’t take more than a few minutes.
15 -
Pour olive oil into a big skillet and heat it over medium-high until it starts to shimmer.
# Extra Information:
01 -
Flank or skirt steak works great since they’re nice and soft to bite.
02 -
Letting the steak marinate makes flavors go deeper.
03 -
If you like, swap in homemade fries or even tater tots instead of the bagged fries.
04 -
Crave more spice? Toss in some jalapenos to the filling.
05 -
Looking for lighter? Try whole wheat tortillas or swap in some low-fat cheese.
