Equipment

  • Sauce pot
  • Mixing bowls
  • Fork
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients

  • 1 bag Success Boil-in-Bag Jasmine Rice 2 cups cooked
  • 1 lbs leftover salmon
  • 3 tbsp mayo
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • ½ tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 Englih cucumber
  • 1 bag shredded cabbage slaw I used an Asian Sesame kit
  • 4 large burrito size flour tortillas

Instructions

  • Start by preparing Success Boil-in-Bag Jasmine Rice according to package instructions.
  • While the rice is cooking, prepare the other ingredients. Cut the cucumber into long, thin strips. Slice the avocado. In a medium bowl, toss the bagged mix with the dressing + toppings it comes with.
  • Microwave the leftover salmon in 60 second intervals or until it’s warmed. Gently flake it into small pieces with the backside of a fork. Optional: add a squeeze of lime juice on the fish for some bright citrus flavors.
  • When the rice is done, add it into a mixing bowl along with the soy sauce, mayo, and sriracha. Use a fork to mash it together.
  • Take the burrito-sized tortilla and layer Success Boil-in-Bag Jasmine Rice mixture, pieces of fish, salad mixture, sliced cucumber + avocado in a line down the center, leaving room on both ends.
  • Then, fold the burrito. The best way I’ve found to do this is as follows:
    • Situate the burrito so the fillings are in a line horizontal to your body.
    • Then use one hand on each side to fold the sides in (this is important to prevent the burrito fillings from falling out!).
    • Then, while still holding the sides folded in place, fold the bottom part of the tortilla upward, over the burrito fillings.
    • Do your best to then roll the burrito upward, tucking in the tortilla as you go.
    • Roll until the entire tortilla is wrapped and the seam is face down on you rolling surface.
    • Slice in half and enjoy!

Notes

Do the burrito folding on top of a sheet of tin foil. This makes it easier to transfer to a serving plate/storage without risk of a burrito explosion.
The assembled burrito is best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container or wrapped in tinfoil in the fridge for up to 2 days.
