Corn and Black bean Quesadillas

This is yet another recipe from Kevin's Closet cooking. I was just wondering the other day about what to cook for dinner and *blink* I just remembered seeing this on his blog and voila I had all the ingredients at home. I have tried to stick to his recipe, just doubled the quantity.....because I was cooking this for 3 people. You can find the original recipe here.

CORN AND BLACK BEAN QUESADILLAS

Ingredients:
4 tortillas,
1-2 cups of grated cheddar cheese,
1 cup corn,
1 cup black beans,
1 chopped jalapeno ,
1 tsp of red chilli powder,
1tbsp of lime juice,
1 tsp cumin powder,
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions,
2 tbsp of finely chopped cilantro,
salt and pepper to taste.

Method:
In a large bowl, mix the corn, black beans, jalapeno/green chilli, chilli powder, cumin powder,
green onions, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and keep aside.
Melt 1/2 tsp of butter in a pan, place 1 tortilla on the pan, put some of the above salsa and scatter some grated cheese and cover with another tortilla. Brown each side of the tortilla for 1-2 minutes. when both sides are lightly browned, remove from the pan and cut into wedges. Serve with sour cream or with some Guacamole.

I am sending this to Tried and Tested, hosted by Hema of Salt to taste .
