n.
flour tortilla folded and wrapped around a filling (of meat, cheese, or beans)
Burrito
A burrito or taco de harina is a type of food found in the
cuisine of
Mexico and the
American-style
Tex-Mex cuisine. It consists of a flour
tortilla wrapped or folded around a filling. The flour tortilla is usually lightly grilled or steamed, to soften it and make it more pliable. In Mexico,
refried beans,
spanish rice, or
meat are usually the only fillings and the tortilla is smaller in size. In the United States, however, fillings generally include a combination of ingredients such as
spanish rice,
beans,
lettuce,
tomatoes,
salsa,
meat,
guacamole,
cheese, and
sour cream, and the result is considerably larger.
