Nigellas Easy Quesadillas Recipe
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.

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

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