For 1 (Makes 2)
A quesadilla is a turnover. It can also be made using corn tortillas.
2 small wheat-flour tortillas
2 tbs canned refried beans, thinned out with a little vegetable stock
or water
2 oz (50g) cheese, sliced thinly
2 tbs tomato salsa (home made or ready made)
sliced fresh chilli (optional)
vegetable oil for frying approx 1 – 2 tbs
Spread the tortillas with the refried bean mixture and place the sliced cheese on top. Dot the taco sauce or salsa on the cheese and add a slice or two of fresh chilli if you like things spicy-hot!
Fold the tortillas into half-moon shapes and fry in a very little oil in a hot pan until browned on both sides and heated through.
