Nigella Lawson Easy Quesadillas image

I saw Nigella Lawson make this on "Nigella Express" this morning and so I made for lunch as a side with tomato soup. Great base recipe I will use again and again.

Time 12m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 soft flour tortilla
1 ounce thinly sliced cured ham
3 slices green pickled jalapeno peppers, coin-sized slices, chopped
1/4 cup grated cheese
1 scallion, finely sliced
3 fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon olive oil (not extra-virgin)
salsa, of your choice

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Place ham on the tortilla.
  • Over 1/2 only, sprinkle the chopped pickled jalapeno, the grated cheese and the chopped scallion. Scatter over the cilantro leaves.
  • Carefully fold the tortilla wrap in half, (fold the untopped half over the cheese so you have a fat half moon).
  • Carefully brush each side with the oil before putting it on the hot grill pan; grill for a minute each side.
  • Transfer the tortilla to a board or plate and cut into 3 triangles. Eat with some salsa on the side.
  • Feel free to play with the fillings as you wish.
