How to fold a burrito-

  • Prepare your fillings:  Follow Directions Below

  • Warm the tortilla: If using a store-bought tortilla, it's best to warm it up first. You can do this by placing it in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 10-15 seconds on each side or by microwaving it for a few seconds until it becomes soft and pliable.

  • Position the fillings: Lay the warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface or in your hand, making sure it's perpendicular to your body. Place your fillings in the center of the tortilla, leaving some space at the edges.

  • Fold the sides: Fold the two sides of the tortilla (left and right) over the fillings. This helps to enclose the edges of the burrito and prevent the fillings from falling out.

  • Begin rolling: Start rolling the burrito away from you, tucking the folded sides in as you go. Use your fingers to keep the fillings in place while rolling.

  • Continue rolling: As you roll, make sure to keep the burrito tight but not too tight to avoid tearing the tortilla. Keep tucking in the sides as needed to maintain a neat and compact shape.

  • Finish rolling: Once you've rolled the burrito completely, give it a gentle squeeze to secure the closure. The weight of the ingredients should hold it together.

  • Optional: For a more secure seal, you can fold in the ends of the burrito. To do this, fold in one end of the burrito, then continue rolling it tightly, and finally, fold in the other end.

  • You've successfully folded a burrito! Now you can enjoy your delicious creation or wrap it in foil or parchment paper to make it easier to hold and eat on the go. Enjoy your burrito with your favorite sauces, guacamole, or salsa.
