Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef (or ground turkey)
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 120 milliliters water
• 6 large flour tortillas
• 2 cups shredded lettuce
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef or turkey.

Step 2

Cook the meat for 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until fully browned. Drain excess fat if needed.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the curry powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.

Step 5

Mix in the tomato paste and water, stirring until well combined. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.

Step 7

Assemble the burritos: Lay a tortilla flat and add a scoop of the curry-flavored meat mixture to the center. Top with shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves.

Step 8

Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you roll. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 9

Serve the burritos warm, with additional sour cream or salsa on the side if desired.
