Quesadilla

Wondering what this famous Mexican dish has got to do in my space?well this dish was the outcome of one among many experimental sessions in my kitchen.First for any one who might not know quesadilla(ke sa de ya) ,famous Mexican dish made of tortilla (a flat bread made of corn flour) and a sharp cheese(jack cheese) with/without some vegetables.I have tasted this dish long ago,though I liked the cheese filling,corn tortilla was not my cup of tea so I just let that go and did not bother to order or have them.Few days back while I was browsing,I happened to read this wiki article and came to know even wheat based tortillas can be made.I was hooked up as wheat based tortilla is something I can make at home afresh.You all know anything with flour and cheese has to taste good,so did my quesadilla :). I referred few recipes and all of them called for a mix of all purpose and wheat flour,but I just made the dough with wheat flour.Once the dough is ready,it is all up to you to chose the filing.It is fun I say.Right from tomatoes,bell pepper,sweet corn you can add any vegetable you like in this.When it comes to cheese try looking for jack cheese or sharp cheddar.If not available you can use mozzarella too.Making this is really easy,more easy than it is seen.try it once it is totally worth trying.This is not the authentic corn/flour based quesadilla recipe.The below recipe uses whole wheat flour and vegetables we like.
