NIGELLA LAWSON EASY QUESADILLAS

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.

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.

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

QUESADILLAS

I have been won over to the way of the wrap generally, but I insist this is the best use of the tortilla ever. I came across it first in Miami, in the Raleigh Hotel in South Beach to be precise. The restaurant there is one of my favorites: it nestles in a ludicrously beautiful garden, hung with shimmering lights, and the food is so good that when I'm in Miami I don't dare eat anywhere else. The Raleigh's Morning Quesadilla is a tortilla wrap, folded around avocado and scrambled egg and grilled and shouldn't by rights be as good as it is. You can do a version of it, should you have any leftover Mexican scrambled eggs, but I find whenever I put avocado in, it squelches out before I get the wrap to my mouth. These cheese and ham babies are very good to offer alongside the cool ceviche, but I often make them for supper. They're that good - and that easy. I give quantities for each round soft flour tortilla; each quesadilla makes three little triangles and it's really up to you how many of them to eat. I wouldn't presume.

Steps:

  • For service: good store-bought salsa of your choice
  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Place the tortilla wrap on the counter in front of you and cover with the ham.
  • 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, that's to say, fold the untopped half over the cheese so you have a fat half moon.
  • Lift this is up carefully and brush each side with the oil before putting it on the hot griddle; grill for a minute each side.
  • Using a steady hand and a wide fine spatula or fish slice, transfer the tortilla to a board or plate and cut into 3 triangles. Eat with some salsa on the side. And please feel free to play with the fillings as you wish.
