# How to Make It:
01 -
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk eggs with 2 tablespoons sour cream, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir in ham strips if using and set aside.
02 -
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden, about 5 minutes, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper. Transfer mushrooms to a separate plate.
03 -
In the same skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Pour in egg mixture and gently stir until eggs are just cooked through, approximately 3 minutes. Avoid overcooking. Remove eggs from heat.
04 -
Lay a tortilla flat and spread 1 tablespoon sour cream in the center. Add one-fourth of the scrambled eggs, shredded mozzarella, and sautéed mushrooms. Top with 1–2 tablespoons diced tomato if using. Repeat for remaining tortillas.
05 -
Fold the top flap of the tortilla over the filling, then tuck in both sides and roll tightly to seal. Ensure fillings are fully enclosed. Repeat for all burritos.
06 -
Place a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add burritos, folded-side down, and cook until golden on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Add more oil if necessary.
# Extra Information:
01 -
For best results, do not overfill the tortillas to ensure easy rolling and a compact shape.
02 -
Burritos can be prepared ahead and stored in the freezer. Thaw before reheating for optimal texture.
