Method

1

Cook the filling

Clean and slice mushrooms. Dice onion. Warm oil over medium-high heat, cook mushrooms and onion for 8–10 minutes until browned and the moisture has evaporated. Stir in cumin, salt and pepper.

2

Fold

Divide filling over half of each tortilla, sprinkle with grated cheese and fold over.

3

Toast

In a clean pan over medium heat, cook folded quesadillas 2–3 minutes per side until golden and the cheese melts. Work in batches.

4

Cut and share

Rest 1 minute, cut into wedges and serve with salsa.

Let the filling cool slightly before folding so the tortillas stay crisp.
