c) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Quick Prep

Spice Things Up

3

a) Add the garlic, tomato puree, Central American style spice mix and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) to the pan. Stir-fry for 1 min.

b) Stir in the BBQ sauce.

c) Season with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat.

Make your Quesadillas

4

a) Lay the tortillas (3 per person) onto a lightly oiled baking tray. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

b) Spoon the pork filling onto one half of each tortilla and top with the cheese.

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

Ready, Steady, Bake

5

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

b) While the quesadillas bake, have a little tidy and get ready to serve.

Finish and Serve

b) Serve the rocket on the side drizzled with the balsamic glaze.
