These pictures SO don't do this meal justice because it is FABULOUS and my photography skills aren't so much...
Anyway these burritos are really good and really easy to make. The burrito recipe comes from Gourmet Sleuth. The proportions I'm giving are for a single batch that makes about 4 small burritos; I personally have only made a double or larger batch.
Makes 4 burritos.
You will need:
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons pureed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1/4 pound pork loin, cut in small squares
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 apples, peeled
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 6 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
Step 1: Adobo Sauce
To prepare sauce, in a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, mayonnaise, and chipotle peppers until smooth. You can add more adobo and peppers to taste. Chill until serving.
(I've included a picture of the can for the chipotle peppers since this isn't a standard item. This can be found in the Mexican Food section at most grocery stores.)
Step 2:
Heat oil* in a frying pan and fry pork until slightly golden . Remove pork and soak oil using paper towels. Add apple, onion and garlic to the frying pan and cook until glazed for 3 minutes.
*(You do not need additional oil if you increase the proportions of this recipe)
Step 3: In a bowl, combine pork mixture, add cilantro with 4 tablespoons of chipotle sauce so that it does not dry out.
Step 4: Heat tortillas on a flat griddle and fill each tortilla with one tablespoon of cooked pork at a time until the tortilla is half full. Fold both ends and roll the tortilla. You can serve these with the chipotle sauce on the side as well :)
This Adobo Sauce is also very good with other items like chicken, chili or other items that could benefit from a gentle spicy kick!
