Method
Whisk together the lime juice, garlic, half the vegetable oil, ground cumin and salt, then coat the steak in the marinade and set aside for 15 minutes.
Cook the rice in salted boiling water according to the packet instructions, then drain and keep warm.
Warm the refried beans in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over high heat and sear the steak for 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, checking with a meat thermometer for 63°C.
Rest the steak for 3 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
Warm the flour tortillas for 20 seconds on each side, then lay flat and top each with rice, refried beans, sliced steak, cheddar and salsa.
Scatter with chopped coriander, fold in the sides and roll each tortilla tightly into a burrito.
