The oozing cheese…

The sight of Jamie Oliver whipping out a fantastic looking Quesadillas in ‘Oliver Twist” has been playing in my mind since Thursday. The oozing cheese really enticed my hungry tummy. I haven’t tried one but the ingredient looks simple enough. He just used some cheese, I think it was cheddar, some coriander leaves, onions (relish would be alright as well), chilies and of course the tortilla.

I’d tried making one today based on what I saw on the program and it taste quite good. The coriander mixed well with strong cheddar cheese that I’d used. Maybe I’d try adding in salsa or some cooked chicken next time.

Quesadilla is a Mexican dish that I believe is equivalent to toasted sandwich. It should be served hot or it will become chewy. The choice of cheese and the fillings will determine its taste. I think a good combination would be mozzarella, Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese. Hmmm.. lots and lots of cheese. A perfect appetizer for the hungry crowd.
