Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • tortilla 2 pieces
  • ground beef 150g
  • green bell pepper 1/2
  • red bell pepper 1/2
  • onion 1/2
  • tomato sauce 4 tablespoons
  • mozzarella cheese 1 cup
  • cheddar cheese 1 piece
  • sweet corn 2 tablespoons
  • salt a pinch
  • pepper a pinch

Recipe 🍳

  1. Slice the green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion thinly.
  2. Heat a small amount of oil in a pan, then sauté the ground beef while seasoning with salt and pepper.
  3. Once the beef is partially cooked, add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and stir-fry together.
  4. When the vegetables have wilted, add the tomato sauce and mix thoroughly, cooking until most of the moisture evaporates to finish the filling.
  5. Place one tortilla on a dry pan, then sprinkle a light layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
  6. Top the cheese with the prepared beef mixture, sweet corn, and diced cheddar cheese, then generously add more mozzarella cheese.
  7. Cover with the second tortilla, then cook evenly on both sides over medium heat until the cheese melts and the tortillas are golden brown. Cut into four pieces.
  1. Sauté ground beef with sliced vegetables using salt and pepper.
  2. Add tomato sauce to complete the filling for the quesadilla.
  3. Fill the tortilla with cheese, filling, corn, and additional cheese, then cover with another tortilla.
  4. Cook on both sides in a pan until the cheese melts completely.

Cooking tips 💡

  • When flipping the quesadilla, place a wide plate over the pan, quickly flip it all at once, then gently slide it back into the pan to prevent breaking the shape.
  • High heat may burn the tortilla before the cheese melts, so use low heat and cover the pan to cook slowly and evenly.
