Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 175 g (6 oz) tuna steaks per person
- 90 g (3.5 oz) basmati rice
- 1 small onion
- 1 teaspoon ground achiote seed (annatto powder)

- 85 g (3½ oz) Cheddar cheese, grated

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Method

- Add the rice and stir fry for a minute
- Add the tomatoes, stir well and then cover and simmer until most of the juice has been absorbed into the rice (about 15 minutes)
- Warm the tortillas under a grill for a few minutes (or seconds in a microwave)
- Stir in the cheese and serve
Serving suggestions
You can pre-make the burritos in the kitchen or serve the mixture into a bowl and let everyone make their own at the table.
Serve with wedges of lime and a green salad
Variations
Pre-make the burritos and heat under a grill for a few minutes for an interesting change.
If you can't get annatto powder, try other spices such as cumin and paprika.
