Ingredients

  • 500g Quality Mark beef mince

  • 1 Tbsp sunflower oil

  • 1 small onion

    finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp tomato puree

Method

To Make Wraps
1

Preheat oven to 180°C.

2

Heat the oil in a frying pan, and cook the onion gently for 5-6 minutes, until tender.

3

Add the mince, breaking up with the back of a spoon to form small pieces until cooked thoroughly and no longer pink.

4

Stir in tomato purée, canned tomatoes and herbs.

5

Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 30 minutes until reduced and thick, but still moist.

6

Add a 425g can of kidney beans (or baked beans) to cooked mince mixture.

7

Spread a large spoonful onto a tortilla with some grated cheese.

8

Fold the bottom over the mince and roll up tightly sideways.

9

Secure with a toothpick and grill the wraps until hot.

10

Remove the toothpick before serving.

Age Group
1

For younger children: Cut the wraps across the middle when cooked as they are easier to handle and eat. Or, serve the mince in mini pita pockets with grated carrot, chopped cucumber & tomato.

2

For older children and parents: Add a little spicy chilli sauce to the mixture for a bit of a kick.
