• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop cucumber. Grate the carrot. Drain the sweetcorn.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook sweetcorn until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook beef mince and carrot, breaking beef up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 2 minutes. • Add mild chipotle sauce, BBQ sauce and the water, stirring, until well combined, 1 minute.
• Arrange mini flour tortillas on a lined oven tray. Divide 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 filling and press down with a spatula. Brush or spray tortillas with a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. • Bake quesadillas until cheese has melted and tortillas are golden, 10-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling back into quesadillas.

• Divide chipotle and BBQ beef quesadillas and charred corn salsa between plates. • Serve with garlic aioli. Enjoy!
