Chinese Pork Dumpling Style Quesadillas

with Chips and Sweet Chilli Sauce

Bringing together Mexican quesadillas and Chinese pork dumplings (jiaozi), this dish is a showcase of fusion flavours. Stuffed inside tortillas is a classic jiaozi inspired filling - spiced pork mince, carrot and cabbage - that's paired with cheese for the signature quesadilla ooziness.

Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the middle shelf until golden, 30-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

2

Meanwhile, trim the carrot, then coarsely grate (no need to peel).

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Grate the cheese.

3

Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

Once hot, add the pork mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. Once browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Next, stir in the carrot and cabbage. Fry until softened, 3-4 mins. Add a drizzle of oil if needed.

Add the Chinese Five spice, garlic and ginger puree. Stir-fry for 1 min. 

4

Add the soy sauce, honey and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) to the pork mince. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 1-2 mins. 

Lay the tortillas (3 per person) onto a lightly oiled baking tray and spoon the pork mince onto one half of each one. Top with the cheese.

Fold the other side over to make a semi-circle. Press down to keep together.

5

Rub a little oil over the top of each quesadilla, then bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 8-12 mins.

6

Share the quesadillas between your plates and serve with the chips on the side.

Pour the sweet chilli sauce into a dipping bowl for the quesadillas.

Finish with some mayonnaise (see pantry for amount) beside the chips for dipping. 

Enjoy!
