Add in the black beans and sweet corn along with the water and stir fry until most of the water has cooked off. Add salt and pepper to taste. Leave to cool while you prepare the other ingredients.
Prepare your sundried tomato basmati rice. Add the cooked rice to a bowl and then add in the chopped sundried tomatoes and lime juice and toss until well mixed in. Add sea salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside.

Assemble. Lie a tortilla down flat on a plate. Add some sundried tomato basmati rice to the center of the tortilla, followed by some black bean and corn mix, followed by some shredded lettuce. Then add some pico de gallo then some vegan sour cream and top with guacamole. Fold in the sides and then roll it up and wrap in foil. Continue with the next tortilla.
Serve. Cut the burritos in half and serve.

Notes

We used basmati rice but brown rice would also work great here. Basmati is really quick to cook so that made our decision for us! Add 1 cup of uncooked basmati rice (200g) plus 1 and ½ cups of water to a pot, bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the water has been absorbed. This equals almost exactly 3 cups of cooked basmati rice.
