Initially the street food was created for the lower society class’ demand.
Nowadays it has updated and focused on different cultures, following the tradition and the quality of products. Street food also permits the people to taste food during a simple stroll around the city.
The burrito consists of a large wheat flour tortilla, generally filled up with bovine meat, chicken or pig then closed to obtain a thin roll.
Every city has a different interpretation of the classic recipe. The filling includes also other ingredients like rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole and cheese. In the USA there are principally four popular versions: the classic tex-mex, the San Francisco's, the San Diego's, and the Los Angeles' one.

Preparation:

Preparation:

Cook separately meat slices in a bit of olive oil and a pressed garlic clove. Add salt and black pepper to the meat slices and cook until medium-done; store for later.
In the same frying pan add the diced tomato to the hot oil. Once the tomato has started to melt down, drop in the previously diced onion and garlic. Cook for a few minutes and add the rice (which has already been cooked), the beans and the meat.
Now sprinkle your mix with cumin and coriander, and stir well. Taste seasoning, add salt and pepper if you wish.

Chop the lettuce into thin slices. Then place a wheat flour tortilla on a plate and spread two tablespoons of the meat, rice and beans mixture we previously did, then place some lettuce over and then sprinkle some cheese on top. Fold the tortilla into the typical cylinder shape, then cut the burrito in two. Serve with guacamole and some hot sauce.
