Method

  • step 1

    Drain the beans, reserving 2 tbsp of the can water. Tip into a bowl with the reserved water, chipotle sauce, coriander and half the cheese. Mash everything well with a fork or potato masher.

  • step 2

    Lay out 4 tortillas, then spread each with ¼ of the cheesy beans. Top with the remaining cheese, then top with another tortilla and use your hands to press them together.

  • step 3

    Heat a griddle on a medium-high heat. Microwave each quesadilla for 45 secs to start the cheese melting, then griddle for 1-2 mins on each side, until the quesadillas are golden and charred. Repeat with the rest, keeping warm in a low oven. Cut them into wedges to serve.

Tried these exactly as per recipe and they were delicious, then added some leftover roasted sweet potato and they were even better - and they only take five minutes to prepare. Fantastic recipe.

These were excellent. Have made a few times now. Really quick to prepare and tasted lovely. You could add cooked chopped chicken as well, as previously suggested.

This is a nice recipe, although I thought it needed more 'bite' to it. Added some spring onions, jalapeños, and small diced pieces of red pepper which helped. Think it would be nicer with chicken but a good, simple meal nonetheless.
