When seeds start to pop, add onion and jalape=F1o and saut‚ a few minutes more. Add potatoes, salt, and water, and simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes, until potatoes are tender. Watch closely as it cooks, adding more water, if needed, just enough to keep the pot bottom covered until the very end.
Add lime juice and stir quickly to deglaze the pan. Stir in peas, currants, and parsley. Heat through and spoon into warm tortillas with rice and a spoonful of sour cream, if desired.
Makes 10 wraps.
