Ingredients
- 6 flour or corn tortillas
- 1 cup corn kernels, can be canned/fresh or frozen and thawed
- 1 large tomato diced into cubes
- 1 red onion diced into cubes
- 1 can black beans drained (420g)
- 120 g cheddar or vegan cheese grated
- Handful of fresh coriander chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Chipotle Sauce
- 3 tablespoon Greek yoghurt or mayonnaise
- ½ teaspoon chipotle in adobo sauce
Garnish
- Lime or lemon (optional)
Instructions
- Dry fry corn on a pan on a medium heat without any oil to get them nice and charred. Once charred, remove corn to a bowl
- Sauté onion in olive oil on a medium heat, once cooked, add to the same bowl.
- Add beans, tomato, and coriander to the bowl, season with salt and pepper, mix to combine all ingredients
- Mix chipotle sauce ingredients in a small bowl, you can adjust either adding more or less chipotle depending on how spicy you like it
- In the same pan, add a tortilla (there’s no need to add any oil). Add some sauce to half of the tortilla
- Spoon some of the mixture evenly on top of the sauce, still keeping on half of the tortilla. Then top with cheese.
- Using a spatula, fold the empty side of the quesadilla over and press down so that the cheese becomes like a glue to stick the tortilla together.
- After a minute, flip the tortilla over so the second side gets a nice golden colour. Once golden remove off the pan and continue with the remaining tortillas.
- Slice quesadillas in half, squeeze some lemon or lime (optional) and dig in!
