Curry Burrito!

Technically, these Aloo-Yoop Curry Potato Wraps from Sarah Kramer's 2010 Go Vegan wall calendar are not burritos:

But I felt like I was eating a giant burrito when stuffing this coconut milk-infused tater wrap into my tiny mouth. Yes, I have a little mouth, and this was a very big wrap. So big, in fact, that I couldn't properly fold the ends of my Ezekial 4:9 sprouted grain wrap. All the filling kept falling out, but it was so delicious, I didn't even mind the mess.

I've vowed to make every recipe in the 2010 Go Vegan wall calendar, and this was the featured dish for March. Sweet potatoes meet white potatoes, green peas, chickpeas, curry powder, and coconut milk. Creamy, hearty, delicious. Oh, and of course, I drizzled the wrap filling with sriracha.

If I make it again though, I'm seeking out a larger wrap. I wasn't crazy about the Ezekial wraps, despite my love for their sprouted grain bread. They were a little tough, and I prefer a soft, melt-in-your-mouth wrap. But I suppose the Ezekial wraps are healthier, so at least I can have that satisfaction.

good wraps are so hard to come by! i loved those flat out wraps... but those suckers aren't vegan. let me know if you find a good one... especially with all the yummy produce just around the corner!

Yum! I'm such a sucker for Indian cuisine, and in a wrap? Great idea. I do have a Sriacha problem, though. I eat way too much!

never did i think to put something curry-like in a burrito - what an awesome idea and combination! messy, but tasty is right up my alley - i'm a fairly sloppy eater anyways. ah ha ha! i love that you're making all of the recipes from the Go Vegan calendar, Bianca - and i looooove that you put sriracha on so many of your eats. sriracha is so awesome!

Thanks, Bianca :) Jackfruit's texture is almost identical to crab. Maybe just a little bit tougher.

Wow. These burritos look perfect! I wish I had one for breakfast right now. Yummmmm.

Sounds yummy! I love making crazy, non-Mexican wraps. I like to call them "fusion burritos."

I say, the more spillage, the better the meal.

A potato curry is just downright awesome on it's own. Your photo makes it looks so snackable!

Ooohh you just killed me with curry! I only recently discovered that I love Indian food so this burrito has made me very hungry!
