This Mexican dish is great for sharing – so double the recipe to serve a crowd. Flour tortillas keep well in the freezer, so any leftovers from the burritos can be frozen.

Chef's tip

You can cook the chilli up to the end of step 1, then cool and freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost, then reheat; make the relish and serve with the accompaniments. Alternatively, flour tortillas keep well in the freezer, so any leftovers from the burritos can be frozen.
