Quesadillas with tomato salsa
Quesadilla is a corn or wheat tortilla fried with the filling. This dish came to us from tex-mex cuisine and has recently become very popular. You can cook quesadilla with any fillings - with meat, poultry, fish or vegetables. It is very convenient to use leftover food from the refrigerator for quesadillas.

Step 5
5. In a bowl, combine chili flakes and powder, oregano, cumin and paprika. Add spices and garlic to the minced meat, season with salt and pepper, fry for another 1 minute. Pour in about a quarter of a glass of water and simmer until the water has completely evaporated. Remove skillet from heat.
Step 6
6. On half of the tortilla, quickly spread a quarter of the cheese and then the minced meat. Add the avocado and sprinkle with green onions. Cover the filling with the other half of the tortilla. Heat a nonstick skillet over low heat and brush with oil. Place the tortilla. Once the cheese begins to melt, turn the tortilla over and toast on the other side. Transfer the quesadilla to a platter, cut in half and keep warm. Fry the rest of the quesadillas in the same way. Serve with sour cream and salsa.
