Mexican Vegetable bowl ( Chipotle style ) My version !!

Hi all...Today i wanna share my fav dish .when i was in USA 2 years back,i used to visit chipotle often,  as The vegetable Burrito bowl is one of my all time favourite. But after coming to London ..i didnt get a chance to visit chipotle..as it is in very few places may be 5/6 places in London..so i wanna try it at home..and here..my dish...Its just my try.....!!

This is the actual Burrito bowl from chipotle..pic taken from their website..you can either choose veg/non veg from the menu...

 ..bt i always like veggie bowl.





Corn salsa



What u need : 

Boiled corn
Jalapeno peppers
Roasted poblano peppers/capsicum ( Iused capsicum here )
Onion 
Salt
cilantro/coriander finely chopped

Note : poblano pepper   is a mild chili pepper originating in the state of PueblaMexico..i replaced it with capsicum/green bell pepper..as its not avaiable in my place

Mix all together to get fresh corn salsa

Tomato salsa :




What u need :

Tomato/Tomatillo
Jalapeno
red chilli flakes
onion
lemon juice 
salt as per taste
cilantro/coriander finely chopped

Blend all the above ingredients together to get spicy tomato salsa..you can add tomato ketch up to get sweet  and spicy taste.

Note : Tomatillos originated in Mexico, and are a staple of that country's cuisine .i replaced with tomatoes.

Onion
Bell pepper/capsicum

Olive oil

Stir fry the ingredients in a pan using olive oil,til they turn out a bit crisp

                                                     Image source 2

Stir fry onion and garlic in a pan,add black beans boiled ( i used canned ). add red chilli powder and adjust salt as per taste..beans should be soft.


Guacamole ( Avacado dip )



                                                            Image source 1

De-seed The Avacado and remove pulp,Mix avacado pulp with jalapeno pepper,onion,lemon juice,cilantro/coriander and finally  salt as per taste


It takes a bit time to prepare all these..but belive me the bowl tastes super yum..so u can ignore all ur efforts ..:)


Now start Layering with rice,black beans,Fajita vegetables, tomato salsa, corn salsa, red chilli salsa...garnish with Guacamole ( Avacado dip ) and lettuce. you can add  sour cream/cheese which i dont like ..so i skipped it..


Here is my Yummy veggie bowl..we both me and my hubby enjoyed it yesterday and now its your turn !!




Note : In all the above ,i used White onion,but if u use red onion it tastes more good,I used jalapeno peppers available in jar..i got mine from sainsbury's  and  even canned black beans froom sainsbury's.

Keep smiling and stay healthy..cya....
