Good questions, answered.

How do I keep the burrito from unrolling?

Fold the sides in first, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the basket so the airflow helps seal it shut.

Can I cook frozen burritos in the air fryer?

Yes, cook from frozen at 360°F for about 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway.
