Mexican corn mushroom wrap


Mexican!! "Sombrero" ..... The moment my daughter opens her lunch box, the smile and joy on her face seeing a wrap is priceless, as its handy and easy to eat without any mess or no fork and spoon needed. These cheesy corn mushroom wrapped in a tortilla makes a healthy wholesome meal. Easy go to wraps are best to pack in a lunch box. We had tried  quesadillas with the same filling in a Mexican restaurant in Muscat, from then I just do my version of mushroom corn filling with some Mexican spices and use it in wraps, burritos, quesadillas etc.

Serves 4 people.

Ingredients:

 

  • 5 whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup sweetcorn ( frozen or fresh)
  • 1 cup diced fresh button mushrooms
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 cup dices bell pepper
  • 2 tbsp. of olive oil
  • 1 tsp Paprika or chili powder
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/4 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 cup freshly shredded cheese
  • 3 tbsp.  chopped coriander.
  • salt and pepper as per taste. 

Method:

  • Heat 2 tbsp. of olive oil in a sauté pan. Add onions and mushrooms, be patient as they turn brown then turn and sauté till its done.
  • Add bell peppers and fry well
  • Once they are done add all the spices paprika, coriander powder, oregano and sauté
  • Add sweetcorn , salt and pepper and mix well
  • Garnish with chopped coriander, the mixture is ready for filling.
  • While the mixture is cooling down, heat a skillet, warm the tortillas and keep it aside.
  • On a tortilla, spread the filling, sprinkle some cheese and wrap it tight.
  • overwrap it with a butter paper and is ready to serve or pack.
  • Serve along with some salsa and chili cheese dip.

  2. Thankyou. Instead of mushroom you can use tofu, paneer(cottage cheese), zucchini, black beans.
