Chicken Tikka Masala burrito! Holds the sauce so good!
Also, California burritos are fusion? Burrito is a Californian invention, and French fries are pretty American (sorry Belgium).
Edit: apparently I’m mistaken. I was under the impression that burritos were an invention of the California Gold Rush (distinct from tacos and using flour & lard tortillas).
The California Gold Rush was literally right after the territory was ceded from Mexico, so even if burittos had come from then they might as well have been still effectively Mexican anyway.

Definitely going to try that with some sour cream and salsa

Burritos are Mexican, Fries are American, thus the fusion into a California Burrito containing a protein + fries + guacamole and salsa.
Souce: Southern California Native.
Side note, I miss Dunkirk and Antwerp lol… That’s where I got introduced to Carbonade flamande. Now I make it at home using Chimey ale, throw some cilantro/coriander in there with belgian fries and parmesan on top… So good.
As a fellow Southern California native, I’m now extra intrigued that you consider California Burrito to be fusion. I’ve lived in San Diego for over 40 years and have always considered it local cuisine, the fusion aspect never crossed my mind.
If you’re still around, this is the place that made the chicken tikka masala burrito:

Yeah, I definitely used Californian instead of American there with that in mind. I wouldn’t want to give credit to the white man for burritos.
