6: Quesadillas [and wedges] (Page 240, Nigella Express)

Today I have a really bad headache and all I wanted to do was go back to sleep. So I decided to reward myself for not only making it through the weekday but also being motivated enough to go to the gym (trust me, it was a struggle). I am slowly making my way through "Nigella Express". I've pretty much got tags on all the pages, just waiting to cook them. So I will probably fit as many as I possibly can in the next few weeks.

In the quesadillas there was some ham, cheese and jalapenos. I don't have a griddle so I didn't get that nice lines on mine. If it burnt, it just burnt in patches. I just browned the quesadillas until crunchy rather than burning them. I then put salsa on top. It tasted really good! Very simple, but the salsa made it taste so much better.

I usually don't fry chips. I usually leave it to my dad or little sister because I don't like spitting oil. And it tastes so much better when someone else makes it for you. I have a lot of memories of eating wedges during uni. A huge bowl smothered in sour cream and sweet chilli sauce. I have decided I like sweet chilli sauce more than I like sour cream. So now I just eat wedges with sweet chilli. Lately I had been craving wedges so it was a good thing they tasted to well with the quesadillas. I'm not sure the Mexicans would have done it, but it tasted okay to my picky palate.

Cooking time: 6 mins for the quesadillas, 10+ mins for the wedges
Taste: 4 stars
Ease: 5 stars

Still listening to "If I never see your face again", it's catchy.
