QUICK QUESADILLAS

This is a Mexican dish.I am sharing the recipe which I used making this 'Quick Quesadillas'.I am saying 'quick' because I did not go to market to bring any of the items required and they were all available at home.

If you do not have 'Tortillas', you can always make 'Maida Roti or Chapati'.That is why I am again and again saying 'QUICK'.

SERVINGS : 2 People

Ingredients :

  1. 2 Big Size Tortillas (Corn or Flour).I used flour Tortillas with 'Cheddar and Jalapeño' flavor.
  2. big Bell pepper or Capsicum -1, Chopped into long slices
  3. big Onion - 1, Chopped into long slices
  4. Cheddar Cheese - 1/2 cup (Shredded)
  5. 2 Tb Spoon Oil
  6. Chipotle Sauce or Paprika.In case you do have it,use any masala you like. 
  7. Salt to Taste

STEPS:

  1.  TO MAKE STUFFING
  • In a pan heat the oil.To that add chopped Bell pepper and Onion.
  • Add salt and sauté it.LEt it cook well.Let it caramelize to some extent.
  • Add Chipotle Sauce or Paprika and let it cook for another 2 -3 minutes  

     2.   TO MAKE QUISADILLA
  • Keep 'PANINI MAKER' to preheat.
  • On the Tortilla, fill the half part with Stuffing and spread cheese on it.
  • Fold the other part on it and bake in the Panini Maker.If you are not using the Panini maker,please find the alternative in the 'TIPS' section
  • Repeat the same test for remaining Tortillas.
  • Cut them into pieces.
  • Quisadillas are ready to serve with salsa or any other dipping
  • Serve hot

TIPS : 

  • The ingredients used in the stuffing are not must and limited to.I have used whatever was available and can be used in Mexican food too.
  • You can add or remove any of the ingredients as per your likes and dislikes
  • If you are not using Panini Maker, you can always use normal 'Skillet' and press the Quisadilla with heavy spatula or Pav bhaji Masher'
  • I have already mentioned above that if Tortillas are not available, Maida roti or Chapati are just perfect.
