Ingredients

  • 6 Large Tortilla Wraps

For the meat!

  • 1 lb Ground Meat
  • 1 Tin White beans in tomato sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Tomato paste
  • 2 Tablespoons White wine
  • 1/2 Onion
  • 2 Cloves Garlic
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

For Extras!

  • A few leaves Lettuce
  • 2 Tomatoes
  • 1 Fresh Red Chili Peppers
  • 3 Green Onion

Instructions

  • Finely chop the onion and garlic.
  • Heat the olive oil and add the onion and garlic.
  • Fry the onion until golden.
  • Add the meat and stir well until the meat dries out any fluid, make sure to mix all the time so the meat will not stick and burn.
  • When the meat is dry, add the white wine and cook until all the liquid evaporates.
  • Add the white beans with sauce.
  • Add tomato paste with a little water and mix well.
  • Lower to a medium heat and wait for the liquid to evaporate a little (not to get completely dry!)

Ready? Good, give the pot some time to cool a bit and in the meantime make the additions:

  • Cut the lettuce into long, thin strips, diced tomatoes and chop the chili finely. You can mix the chili with tomatoes or separately to control the spicy kick.
  • Cut green onion however you like.

Hungry? Good, let’s begin:

  • Heat the tortillas on a striped skillet to give a little scorch on each side.
  • Any extras fill to a ¼ in order to keep it easy to role the tortilla.
  • You’ve got extras like - Meat, lettuce, tomato and green chili – be creative!
  • Roll them up – cut in the middle and eat…simple!
  • And of course not to forget a tequila chaser before, after or in the middle…and beer of course - only Mexican!
  • Bon Appetite!
