    Beef quesadilla with chipotle sauce

    Ingredients
    • 500 g minced beef
    • 1 tbsp. Hot Mexican spice mix
    • 2-3 garlic cloves
    • 4 flour tortillas
    • 200 g aged cheddar cheese (or other cheese that melts well)
    • mayo with chipotle in adobo
    • pickled onion (optional)
    • oil
    • salt
    Preparation
    1. Grate the cheddar.
    2. Mix the mayo, chipotle in adobo and salt if necessary and make a sauce.
    Cooking
    1. Heat 2-3 tbsp. oil over medium heat and add the minced beef. Break it up well with a wooden spatula and cook until it changes color.
    2. Add the crushed garlic cloves and salt if the meat is not already seasoned.
    3. Add 1 tbsp. Hot Mexican spice mix, mix well, cook for 2-3 minutes and remove from the heat. The meat should not be completely dry.
    4. In a dry pan preheated over medium heat, place a flour tortilla, 1/4 of the cheddar, and 1/4 of the minced meat. Choose tortillas that are smaller than the bottom of the pan so they cook evenly on the edges.
    5. Optionally, add pickled onions (avocado or other stuffing).
    6. Close the tortilla and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden. Press well the layers to prevent the quesadilla from opening later.
    7. Repeat the process with 3 more tortillas and reduce the cooking time slightly because your pan will be warmer.
    8. Serve warm with chipotle mayo sauce, cherry tomatoes, avocado or fresh salad.
