A Little Bit of Asia, A Little Bit of Mexico – All in One Bite! 🌯💚
Satay + Burrito = Pure Magic! ✨🌯
We've taken our flavour-packed Satay Marinade and wrapped it up in a tortilla – and it's every bit as delicious as it sounds! The best part? You can switch things up with our Spice Pantry blends to create Rendang Burritos or Meat Curry Burritos. It's like a flavour holiday in every bite! 🌏😍
You could also "Burrito" it in brilliant Rendang fusion, taking the rich, slow-cooked soul of a classic Southeast Asian stew and wrapping it up in a convenient, hand-held form. My Blue Tea's Rendang Powder, a 100% natural blend of herbs, is the key to creating that deep, authentic flavour . The tender, slow-braised beef is fragrant with coconut and spices, creating a filling that is both comforting and intensely flavourful, with the potential for a gentle warmth that builds with every bite. It's the very essence of Malaysian comfort food, reinvented .
To add another layer of complexity, you can incorporate My Blue Tea's either Meat Curry Base Powder for an all-purpose curry dimension that complements the Rendang perfectly . The beauty of this dish is in its construction; the rich, saucy filling is cradled in a soft tortilla with fluffy rice, creating a perfect textural contrast . It's a brilliant example of the versatility of these spice blends, proving they can go far beyond traditional curries to create exciting new culinary experiences

The Burrito That Took a Holiday to Malaysia!

COOKING METHOD:
Rice Method:
Add rice to a fine-mesh strainer and wash 2 times with water.
Place rice into a rice cooker with equal parts water and cook.
Once finished cooking, add salt to taste and unsalted butter. Stir until fully melted and incorporated.
Add in finely chopped cilantro and the juice of one lime. Stir until combined.
Chicken Method:
Place chicken thighs into a bowl and coat thoroughly with satay marinade base and sugar.
In a medium skillet, heat enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan, and once hot add the chicken. Sear for 2-3 minutes. Flip and sear for 1-2 more minutes.
Add chicken pieces to a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven set to 400F for 10-15 minutes or until internal temperature is 165F.
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and toss in its own juices.
Beans Method:
In a medium saucepan, add unsalted butter over medium heat.
Once the butter has melted, add in sliced sweet onion, salt, and pepper, sliced jalapenos, and stir to coat with the butter.
Let cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables begin to soften.
Add in a can of black beans, hot sauce, and salt to taste. Stir until incorporated.
Continue to cook, while stirring often, until everything is hot.
In a separate cold pan, add sliced bacon and set to medium heat. Let cook and stir often until it's rendered fat and cooked through and crisp.
Remove the bacon from the fat, drain with a paper towel, and once drained finely chop.
Add chopped bacon to the beans and stir until incorporated.
Fajitas Vegetables Method:
In a medium bowl, toss together the sliced red bell pepper, sliced sweet onion, and sliced jalapenos until evenly mixed.
In the same pan, the bacon is cooked in, heat until medium-high and add in the sliced veggies, and season with salt.
Cook tossing occasionally for 3-5 minutes or until lightly charred and just beginning to soften.
Turn off the heat and add in chopped garlic, toss together, and season with salt to taste.
Aioli Method:
Add all ingredients into a medium bowl.
Mix until thoroughly combined and incorporated.
Assembly Method:
On a warm tortilla, lay down a layer of rice, hot beans, chicken, a drizzle of aioli, a layer of fajita veggies, an optional sprig of cilantro and a grating of cheddar cheese.
Grab the sides and fold towards the center, grab the bottom and roll over the filling and over the folded insides nice and tight all the way up until fully wrapped.
Ready to serve.
