Blue cheese quesadilla
Melted cheese paradise in a soft tortilla.
Ingredients
750g English spinach leaves
Sea salt and pepper
400g fresh mozzarella balls, drained
200g creamy blue cheese (eg. gorgonzola)
8 soft wheat flour tortillas
Method
Wash the spinach well and shake dry. Heat a dry non-stick pan, add the spinach and cook quickly, wilting it while evaporating the water.
Squeeze dry, finely chop and toss with sea salt and pepper. Slice the mozzarella finely and roughly crumble the blue cheese.
Arrange a few mozzarella slices over one flour tortilla, scatter with blue cheese and strew with spinach.
Top with a second flour tortilla, pressing down lightly. Cook in a dry non-stick frying pan over medium heat for about 2 minutes until lightly browned. Turn once, and cook the other side until the cheese has softened. Slide onto a board and cut into quarters. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
