Mexican Fish Recipe
Quesadillas

This is a fantastic mexican fish recipe. It is really versatile - you don't have to make the quesadillas, use the tortilla to make fajitas, enchilada - anything you fancy really.

Even if you decide to make enchilladas, you only need to heat the oven whilst you're putting the other ingredients together.

Quesadillas
2 tbspn oil
1 onion - peeled and chopped finely
2 cloves garlic - peeled and chopped
2 tbspn chilli powder - use more or less according to taste
1/tspn dried oregano
1 tspn cumin
Salt to taste
1 400g can peeled chopped tomatoes
Black olives - pitted and sliced
1 can tuna
4 oz (100g) peeled and cooked prawns (shrimp)
8 oz (200g) grated hard cheese
8 tortillas

Heat the oil in a pan, add the onions and garlic and fry until soft.

Stir in the spices and cook for a couple of minutes to take out the 'harshness'.

Add the tomatoes and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce has thickened. Stir in the olives, tuna and prawns.

Grease a frying pan and put in a tortilla - add a quarter of the cheese and fish sauce and top with another tortilla.

Fry both sides for a minute or so until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is browned.

Remove from the pan and cut into wedges and keep warm - cover loosely so as not to make them soggy - whilst you cook the remaining tortillas.

Each pair will take 1 minute each side - you might want to keep them warm in a low oven with foil covering.
