16 - 300 g liquid egg whites (optional, for extra protein)
17 - 100 g blended cottage cheese (optional, for fluffy eggs and added protein)

→ Assembly

18 - 10 large low-carb protein tortillas
19 - 250 g light mayonnaise
20 - 100 g sriracha sauce

# How to Prepare:

01 - Preheat oven or air fryer to 200°C. Toss diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, Italian herb seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, chilli powder, and smoked paprika until evenly coated. Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking tray or in the air fryer basket. Cook for 20–25 minutes, stirring once, until golden and crisp.
02 - Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté diced onion until translucent. Add beef mince, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, diced garlic, and reserved spices. Cook, breaking up the meat, until beef is browned and thoroughly cooked.
03 - In a large bowl, whisk eggs with optional egg whites and optional cottage cheese until well combined. Pour into a lightly oiled hot skillet. Gently scramble, stirring often, until eggs are just set and fluffy.
04 - In a bowl, combine light mayonnaise and sriracha until smooth. Divide into 10 equal portions.
05 - Heat each tortilla on a dry skillet over low heat for 30 seconds per side or until pliable.
06 - Spread one portion of sriracha mayonnaise over each tortilla. Layer with crispy potatoes, beef mixture, and scrambled eggs. Add any desired extra fillings. Roll each burrito tightly, folding in the sides to secure the filling.
07 - Wrap each assembled burrito in foil or plastic wrap. Freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, unwrap and wrap in a slightly damp paper towel. Microwave for approximately 2 minutes, then air fry at 190°C for 5–8 minutes until hot and crispy.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Incorporate egg whites and cottage cheese for extra protein and a fluffier egg texture.
02 - Top with hot sauce or a sprinkle of cheese before rolling for enhanced flavour.
03 - Carisma potatoes can be substituted with russet, sweet potatoes, or your preferred variety.
