Tuna Burrito With Fresh Salsa And Black Bean Dip Recipe

We got our hands on one of the best fish cookbooks we've encountered in recent memory, authored by two of Sweden's best-known chefs. What you'd never be able to tell from the cover is how rock-crazy these guys are — their "pairings" encourage you to listen to the White Stripes, Kiss, Smashing Pumpkins and the Beatles (among others) while you prepare a spectacular fish dish, like this fried tuna burrito.

The difference between a wrap and a burrito is that a wrap is open while a burrito is fastened at the edges. It is therefore vital that you roll the burrito in plastic wrap before preparing it, otherwise you get a tortilla with a sort of tuna hash instead. If prepared correctly, this dish is awesome.
