Ингредиенты

Flatbread (tortilla) - 4 pcs.

Greens, mix (dill, parsley, wild garlic) - 1 bunch

Tomato - 200 g (1 pc.)

Garlic - 1 clove

Hard cheese (Dutch) - 50 g

Soy sauce - 2 tbsp.

Vegetable oil - for frying

Рецепт

1. Prepare all the ingredients for the chimichanga. You can use tortillas as a thin flatbread, but if you can’t find them, thin lavash will do.

2. How to make spring chimichanga: Finely chop fresh herbs (you can use any herbs that are in season), wash the tomato and cut it into small cubes. Place the ingredients in a deep bowl.

3. Grate the hard cheese and garlic on a fine grater, add to the tomato and herbs. Pour soy sauce over the ingredients. Note! You don’t need to add salt, since both soy sauce and cheese contain a lot of salt. Mix all the ingredients for the filling.

4. Spread the flatbread on a flat surface, put a tablespoon of the filling on it. Wrap the flatbread into an envelope, tucking the edges on both sides and rolling it up.

5. Fry the chimichangas in hot vegetable oil in a frying pan on both sides for 3-5 minutes. The tortillas should become crispy and browned. 6. Serve as an appetizer. These chimichangas are very convenient to give as a snack to children and adults, and also to take with you on a camping trip.
