QUESADILLAS
Originating in Mexico, a quesadillas is a soft tortilla filled with cheese and a variety of
vegetables, chicken or meat. They are often baked or fried to crisp the tortilla. Quesadillas
can be adapted to include lots of your favourite ingredients. We have included some
quesadillas recipes but feel free to put together your own favourite.
Tortillas (often called wraps) can be made using the recipe on page 15 or bought ready-
made. Larger supermarkets sell a variety of tortillas including whole-wheat, soft brown
and seeded.
EASY QUESADILLAS - serves 1-2
2 tortilla wraps
2 handfuls of grated cheese of your choice
(cheddar often works well)
½ red pepper, finely diced
¼ green pepper, finely diced
The secret to the delicious flavour in these quesadillas is to cut the peppers and onions
into a really fine dice.
1. Heat your crêpe maker on setting 3 without any oil.
2. Place all the ingredients for the quesadillas into a bowl and combine well.
3. Place a tortilla wrap onto the hot crepe maker. Add a couple of handfuls of the
cheese mixture as if you were making a pizza. Spread it out to within 1cm of the
outer edge of the tortilla. Add the second tortilla on top of the first.
4. Cook for approx 2-3 minutes until the base turns golden and crispy and the filling
begins to melt
5. Place your hand gently on top of the quesadillas (it won't be hot) and ease a spatula
underneath. Flip the quesadillas over and cook for a few more minutes until crisp.
6. Serve hot cut into wedges. Delicious with a side serving of spicy salsa and avocado
dip
