Cooking Steps

Get Prepped
1
  • Drain and rinse the kidney beans in a sieve.
  • Halve, peel and finely dice the shallot.
  • Trim and grate the carrot (no need to peel).
  • Cut the tomatoes into 2cm dice.
  • Quarter the lime.
Mash the Beans
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Add the beans and cook until warmed, 2-3 mins.
  • Roughly mash with a fork.
Add the Veg
3
  • Add the carrot, chipotle paste, Mexican spice and half the shallot to the beans
  • Season with a squeeze of lime juice, salt, pepper and ¼ tsp sugar (per 2P). Mix well.
Fill the Tortillas
4
  • Lay the tortillas out on a board.
  • Spread a little of the bean mixture over one-half of each, leaving a small border around the edge.
  • Top each with a sprinkling of the cheese.
  • Fold the tortillas in half to make semicircles.
Fry the Quesadillas
5
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, carefully place the folded quesadillas into the pan.
  • Fry until golden, 1-2 mins each side. Turn carefully.
  • Lightly press down on each one with a spatula to ensure they stick together and brown nicely.

TIP: You might have to do this in batches. Add more oil to the pan as needed and cover cooked quesadillas with foil to keep warm.
