Veg Tortilla Wrap- Mexican Cuisine-With Steamed Rice,Corn,Mozarella Cheese, Peas & Beans/Sans Sauces

Hi Everyone!!!!!!!

The recipe which we are going to see is one of my favourite dishes. I love Punjabi and Mexican food and love to taste all varieties in them.This dish in particular is great to have when you feel bored of your regular diet or food.

Tortillas are great to taste and in Chennai,India, I particularly love this recipe in Cream Center and Little Italy.They serve this food excellently. These two are our favourite hangouts. My husband loves Sizzlers and i love tortillas. So if you get a chance go and try these two restaurants.

Tortillas are made from simple flour and it is very thin and soft. It is grinded from wheat flour. Tortillas are made into different dishes and they are also made with mashed potatoes.I have also heard that they dip these tortillas in thick vegetable
porridge and have it.

And in this recipe i have tried tortillas without/sans sauces. It is a very simple one and can be made very easily. And i have made some additions and deletions according to my choice. And i have not added any toppings or seasoning except cheese.

This is a long time pending recipe for me. Yesterday i was bored of regular food,tiffin etc.So had this for our dinner yesterday.Vow Yummy!!!!Tortillas are heaven to have!!!!!Try out and you will also feel the same...Kudos to the Mexican people for finding this recipe..))))))))))))

10.)Now grate the cheese on top of this.I used Mozarella Cheese. Grate it according to your quantity.But remember grate it only above the veggies and rice so that it binds well.



11.)Now roll without breaking the tortilla as below.



12.)Now microwave the same till the tortilla is cooked and it turns light brown.You will get an excellent aroma .Please check in between.Keep in a heating plate and if you want you can grease with some little butter .After the tortilla is cooked, cut it into two pieces as below.







Note:

1.)You can use red bell pepper corn instead of green capsicum.

2.)You can use sauces also for this.But i do not like too much of sauce so i deleted totally from this recipe.

3.)Stuffing in tortillas can be made according to your choice and you have varieties in that.

4.)I have cut the tortillas into two pieces for easy eating.

5.)If you want to have a better and more yummy taste , grate some more cheese above the tortillas and have.

Bon Appetit!!!!!!!!!!!!
