Instructions
• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. • Grate carrot. Finely chop celery and garlic. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook beef mince (no need for oil!), breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes.
• Add celery and carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic, Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato paste to the pan, then cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the brown sugar and water and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
• Meanwhile, arrange mini flourtortillas on a lined oven tray. Divide the beef filling between tortillas, spooning it onto one half of each tortilla, then top with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Fold the empty half of each tortilla over to enclose the filling and press down gently with a spatula. Brush (or spray) the tortillas with a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. • Bake quesadillas until cheese has melted and tortillas are golden, 10-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling back into the quesadillas.
TIP: You can place a sheet of baking paper and a second oven tray on top of the quesadillas if they begin to unfold during cooking.
• While the quesadillas are cooking, combine shredded cabbage mix and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. Season to taste. • Divide cheesy Tex-Mex beef quesadillas between plates. • Serve with slaw and sour cream. Enjoy!
TIP: Cut the quesadillas into wedges if you prefer!
