Ingredients
Rice verde
250 ml (1 cup) cilantro, leaves removed
250 ml (1 cup) baby spinach
3 green onions, cut into chunks
1 jalapeno seeded, coarsely chopped
1 clove of garlic, chopped
60 ml (1/4 cup) water
2.5 ml (1/2 tsp) salt
500 ml (2 cups) long grain rice, cooked and cooled
Meatlessness
400g VEGEAT vegetable mince or minced meat if desired
45 ml (3 tbsp) vegetable oil
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
10 ml (2 tsp) ground cumin
10 ml (2 tsp) dried oregano
5 ml (1 tsp) ground chipotle
45 ml (3 tablespoons) sultanas swollen in warm water
In a food processor or blender, puree the cilantro, spinach, green onions, jalapeno, garlic, water and salt. Stir this mixture into the cooled rice and set aside.
In the meantime, in a large pan heated over medium heat, break up the vegetable meat with a wooden spoon in the oil. Shred the meat as finely as possible. Add the garlic, spices and raisins and cook for about 3 minutes. Season to taste and add the canned beans. Mix and remove from the heat, let cool.
Place a tortilla on the counter in front of you. In the bottom third, layer 3 tablespoons of rice verde and vegetable meat, add about 2 tablespoons of sauerkraut and a little of each of the other ingredients on top. Roll the bottom of the tortilla over the filling, fold both sides towards the centre and continue to roll the tortilla as for sushi. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.
Preheat a ridged or unridged pan over medium heat and cook the tortillas for a few minutes on each side. Can be eaten hot or cold as you like.
