Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook Jasmine Rice

    In a medium pot, combine 1 cup of jasmine rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice is fluffy. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for another 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Black Beans

    If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them. If using dried beans, soak them overnight and then cook until tender, about 1-2 hours.

  3. 3

    Prep the Vegetables

    Finely shred the cabbage, dice the red onion, and slice the jalapeños (remove seeds for less heat).

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burritos

    On each flour tortilla, layer 1/4 cup of jasmine rice, 1/4 cup of black beans, 1/4 cup of shredded cabbage, 2 tablespoons of diced red onion, 1 sliced jalapeño, and 2 tablespoons of white sauce.

  5. 5

    Wrap the Burritos

    Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling tightly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burritos warm with extra white sauce on the side for dipping if desired.
