Step 2: Fold your burrito

Fold the bottom of the tortilla up towards the center, then fold the top down towards the center. Then, fold the left side of the tortilla towards the center, followed by the right side. You should now have a neat, compact burrito. Make sure the edges are tucked in so that nothing falls out during cooking.
