Black Bean Quesadillas

Directions

  1. Heat a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, dry toast the spices until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add the black beans and vegetables and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring and lightly mashing the beans as they cook.
  3. Taste for seasoning and add salt to taste. Spoon mixture into a bowl then wipe out the pan and return to a medium heat.
  4. Sprinkle grated cheese over one half of each tortilla, then spoon ¼ of the bean mixture on top of the cheese, finishing off with the remainder of the grated cheese and a bit of chopped coriander. Fold over the tortillas then transfer 2 of them to the hot pan. Toast until golden, 1-2 minutes, then flip over and toast on the other side.
  5. Remove from the pan and toast the remaining 2 tortillas.
  6. Cut each quesadilla in half and serve with salsa for dipping and garnished with a bit more chopped coriander.
