  1. MEXICAN MINCE

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final minutes, add the NOMU rub & onion flakes.

  2. CAN’T TOP THIS

    While the mince is cooking, smear each tortilla with the sour cream. Top 1 of the tortillas with the mince mixture, the diced pepper, the drained jalapeños (to taste), and the cheese. Sandwich the loaded tortilla with the remaining tortilla. In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, the chopped coriander, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  3. QUICK QUESADILLA

    Place the quesadilla in a clean pan or grill pan over medium heat. Fry until golden, 1-2 minutes. Cover the pan with a chopping board or a plate. Flip the pan quickly so the quesadilla flips onto the board or plate. Slide the quesadilla back into the pan so the untoasted side is on the base of the pan. Toast until the cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and cut into triangles.

  4. YAY FOR YUMMINESS

    Arrange the cheesy quesadilla triangles on a plate and garnish with any remaining jalapeño. Side with the tomato & coriander salsa for freshness and the guacamole for dunking. Enjoy!
