Tortilla Parcels

Jump to Comments

This turned out to be a huge hit, and as there are so many variations possible, I think we’ll be having it quite often.

Base Ingredients

• 6 soft tortillas / wraps
• 1 ball fresh mozarella, drained and sliced

Filling Ideas

• tuna (well drained) and sweetcorn
• mashed avocado and shredded cooked chicken
• mashed avocado and bacon bits
• tuna (well drained) and chopped, deseeded tomato
• crushed beans (eg kidney) and chopped, deseeded tomato

Method

1. Heat a large non-stick frying pan (no oil!)
2. Prepare your filling ingredients, making sure they aren’t wet ie drain stuff.
3. Warm a couple of tortillas slightly (I did it in the microwave for a nanosecond) to make them more pliable.
4. Put a large tbsp of filling in the middle.
5. Artfully drape some strips of mozarella over the filling.
6. Fold two sides of the tortilla over the filling, then the two open ends, to form a parcel.
7. Dry-fry it in the pan over a medium heat, seam-side down, for a couple of mins until light golden.
8. Turn and fry the other side. The filling should be warmed through and the cheese just melting.
9. Enjoy!
