ham and cheese quesadillas

Method

• step 1

  lay 1 tortilla in frying pan. heat must still be off.

• step 2

  tear ham up, and grate cheddar cheese. other hams maybe used. after tearing ham and grating cheese mix together, with a drizzle of olive oil if using. olive oil just holds the filling together but works without.

• step 3

  then sprinkle filling evenly on the tortilla making sure ham and cheese are evenly shared all over the tortilla.

• step 4

  lay next tortilla on top and press down lightly.

• step 5

  turn hob onto low heat and allow cheese to melt so tortillas are glued together.

• step 6

  when golden brown, turn over and allow other side to cook to same colour.

• step 7

  then cut into 4 seperate pieces, serve with guacamole and salad to finish off this british/ american take on an authentic mexican dish.
