These quesadilla are a firm favourite in our house and are really easy to make. Great to enjoy with friends but also great the next day for lunch.
You will need:
- 8 small corn tortillas
- Soured Cream
- Cheddar cheese
- 230g black beans (I used canned and then drain them)
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- bunch of coriander (leaves and stalks) chopped
- 1 & 1/2 limes
- 1/2 small red onion thinly sliced
- 1/2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 3 spring onions
- 4/5 sweet medium tomatoes
- 1 garlic clove
- salt
- 2 ripe avocados diced
To make the salsa soak the red onion in the vinegar an a bowl for a few minutes and then add the spring onions, chopped tomatoes, crushed garlic clove, the rest of the chopped coriander, juice of 1/2 a lime, 3/4 tsp salt and diced avocados. Mix well.
Now to put it all together. Take a tortilla and spread it with the black bean paste leaving about 2cm clear all round the edge. Over one half, spread a tablespoon of the soured cream, a tablespoon of salsa and a sprinkle of the cheese. Now fold the tortilla in half.
Heat a griddle pan till its really hot and then gently place the quesadillas one or two at a time and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. The filling should be warm and the tortilla nicely charred. Serve with the left over salsa.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog! I am from Houston, TX and I'm coming to spend the summer with my boyfriend in Cambridge. I am thinking of starting a craft meet up! E-mail me at kikamoblog@gmail.com. I think this would be a neat way to make friends. Let me know if you would be interested.
