Death by Burrito: Mexican street food to die for

Product Information

Delicious modern recipes from Death by Burrito, the revolutionary Mexican eatery based at the Catch bar in the heart of Shoreditch, with a new branch recently opened in central London. I've previously made the lentil and plantain burritos, via the YouTube video from Jamie Oliver's FoodTube and they are ah*mah*zing. Death by Burrito is run by the Rebel Dining Society, a creative catering company from east London, and some of the burrito and taco fillings are a lot more adventurous than the standard meat/rice/beans/guacamole combos – soy-braised pork with smoked kim-chi, lobster, quinoa with roasted vegetables.

Death by Burrito isn’t the best cookbook – it’s actually one of the more confusing books we actually own. Don't get me wrong; it's not a bad cookbook, but you would be much better off picking one up written for a US audience by someone either on the Southern side of Texas or someone who's taken up residence on the northern side. Midway through recipes, it instructs you to go to different pages and make something else, which is pretty challenging when trying to time out food or follow the recipe.If you have already submitted another request to index a book or magazine yourself, please do not make any additional requests until you have indexed and submitted that book or magazine.

It’s really great that the book has recipes for salsa verde and different rices, but having the person cooking flip between pages is really a challenge. As is common with these kinds of books today, it begins with a (very) short history of the restaurant which in this case if pretty laughable; the book coming less than two years after the restaurant first opened.

The chicken itself was just like chicken and gravy – which is an interesting filling, but we felt the recipe was intense for what ended up being chicken and gravy inside tortillas.

Anyone already comfortable with the techniques of Mexican cooking in Britain will, I'm sure, be able to concoct their own flavour combinations if they wish, so it's probably not for them. I'm a guy who eats Mexican food in restaurants owned, staffed, and cooked by folks from Mexico, so I wasn't terribly impressed.
