Ingredients

  • 1 small onion
  • oil, for cooking
  • 600g/1lb 5oz skinless, boneless turkey breast or thigh
  • 3 tsp Mexican seasoning, such as mild taco seasoning
  • 2 tomatoes, halved
  • 200g tin of sweetcorn, drained
  • 200g/7oz grated cheese, such as Cheddar
  • 4 large soft tortilla wraps
  • 4 tbsp natural yogurt, to serve

Method

Before starting this, Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 4.

  1. Peel and roughly chop the onion. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat, then add a dash of oil and the onion. Cook for 10 minutes.

    1. Reduce the heat if the onion starts to color.

  2. Cut the turkey meat into 2½cm cubes and add them and the Mexican seasoning to the onion.

  3. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring now and again.

  4. Grate the cut sides of the tomatoes into the pan, using a cheese grater.

  5. Discard the skin once the flesh is grated. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 4 minutes. Add the sweetcorn and stir.

  6. Put the tortilla wraps on a chopping board and spoon the meat mixture into the middle of the wraps. Sprinkle with the grated cheese.

  7. Fold the sides of the wraps over the filling, then roll the wraps up from the bottom to top to enclose the filling completely.

  8. Put the wraps, folded side down on a baking tray. Put a little oil into your hand and gently rub it over the wraps. Place in the oven and bake for 7 minutes, then turn the wraps over and bake for a further 5 minutes.

  9. Serve each burrito with a tablespoon of yogurt on the side for dipping.
