 Quesadilla rellena

Quesadilla is a dish in Mexican cuisine consisting of a tortilla filled with mostly cheese, sometimes meat, spices and other fillings, which are then cooked in a pan or stovetop. Traditionally, corn tortillas are used, but it can also be made from flour tortillas. A complete Quesadilla is made from two tortillas with a layer of cheese in the middle. One half is a tortilla filled with cheese and folded into a crescent shape. Quesadilla originated in colonial Mexico. Quesadilla as a dish has changed and evolved over the years as people experimented with different variations of it. Quesadillas are commonly sold in Mexican restaurants around the world.

Quesadilla of Mexican origin

In central and southern Mexico, a quesadilla is a flat round piece of boiled corn, called a tortilla, that is warmed to soften enough to fold in half and then filled with fillings. They are often stuffed with Oaxaca cheese (queso Oaxaca), a Mexican string cheese. It is then cooked until the cheese is melted completely. They are often prepared without adding oil. Typical serving of quesadilla is with green or red salsa, chopped onions, and guacamole. Although Oaxacan cheese (or string) is the most common filling, other ingredients are also used in addition to cheese or even as a substitute for cheese.

In some places, quesadillas are also decorated with ingredients other than the existing toppings.

The most common are avocado or guacamole, chopped onions, tomatoes, serrano pepper, and cilantro.Salsa can also be added as a topping. Traditional ones are prepared by filling partially cooked tortillas, then cooking until the cheese melts, then the fries are prepared like a cake:

The raw dough is prepared into small circles, then covered with filling and finally the quesadilla is folded to form the dough.It is then dipped in hot oil until golden and crispy. Other options include using flour tortillas, especially in northern Mexico. Wheat flour is often used instead of corn starch.In this case, flour tortillas are cooked, folded and stuffed with cheese.
