Watch Becky’s video and make your own quesadillas with the instructions below.
A quesadilla is a Mexican dish, consisting of a tortilla that is filled with cheese, and sometimes meats, beans, and vegetables and then cooked on a griddle or in a frying pan.
You will need:
- Frying pan
- Tortilla wraps
- Cheese such as cheddar
- Vegetables of your choice for the filling
This is a great way to use up vegetables that are not looking their best such as leeks, peppers, carrot, spring onions and mushrooms.
For 6 people you will need approx. 500g of mixed vegetable and a similar amount of hard cheese such as cheddar.
Layer the vegetable filling and cheese onto a tortilla wrap and top with another to form a sandwich.
Heat a large frying pan until hot and then turn down to its lowest heat.
Put the sandwich into the frying pan and cook for approx. 2 minutes until golden and then turn over and repeat.
Once cooked, cut into 8 and enjoy. (We recommend you wait a couple of minutes before eating as the cheese will be really hot.)
You can try lots of different fillings to see which one you like the best.
