Prepare the beef burrito mix

1. Finely dice peppers, onions and garlic (approx. 3–5 mm) and slowly sauté over low heat to develop a deep, mellow vegetable base (guiso-style).
2. Ground beef (15–20% fat) added and cooked slowly to absorb and integrate the vegetable flavours.
3. Tex-Mex seasoning blend added as a supporting, giving warmth and character without turning into a chili style flavour.
4. Small amount of water or beef broth added to encourage slow reduction and a stew-like consistency.
5. Light cornstarch slurry added towards the end for a cohesive, slightly glossy finish.
6. Very small quantity of cooked black beans folded in near the end, only to provide a subtle Tex-Mex cue without influencing texture.
