## Steps

1. Fry the minced beef in a hot pan with olive oil, stirring constantly, until browned. (6 min)
2. Add the garlic, sriracha, smoked paprika, cumin and oregano and mix well. (1 min)
3. Remove from the heat, add the tomato purée, cream cheese and beans, and season with salt and pepper. (2 min)
4. Cut the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds — if you like, add the seeds to the mango salsa. Dice the tomato flesh. (5 min)
5. Warm the tortillas in a pan until soft and pliable. (4 min)
6. Brush each tortilla with olive oil on both sides. (1 min)
7. Place a little avocado, a little tomato, a few jalapeños and a strip of cheddar down the centre of each tortilla. (2 min)
8. Add 3-4 tbsp of the filling, fold in the edges and roll tightly into a burrito.
9. Place the burritos seam-side down and prepare the rest in the same way.
10. Place 2 tbsp of cheese in a hot pan over medium heat, sprinkle with a pinch of chilli flakes and place the burrito on top of the cheese. Fry for about 1-2 minutes until crisp and golden. (1 min)
11. Turn the burrito over and fry on the other side for a further 1½-2 minutes. (2 min)
12. For the mango salsa, mix the mango, avocado, tomato seeds and herbs together in a bowl. (2 min)
13. Season the salsa with lime juice and zest, chilli, salt and pepper, and mix well. (1 min)
14. Serve the hot, crispy chimichanga-style burritos with mango salsa and crème fraîche. (1 min)
