Notes

  • Cook the rice, "meat," or mushrooms beforehand and allow them to cool so the ingredients are easy to handle when making the burrito.
  • Placing the cooked rice in the burrito first adds a moisture blocker to the rest of the ingredients, preventing the burrito from breaking when folded.
  • The aluminum foil keeps the burritos soft. If you want a crunchy burrito, don't wrap it in, but place it on the baking sheet or in the air fryer pan seam side down. The cooking time and temperature are the same.
  • Prepare the yum-yum sauce so it has time to thicken in the refrigerator.
  • Squeezing the kimchi's liquid helps keep the burrito from getting soggy.
