ABOUT Desi Quesidilla RECIPE

The credit for this goes to my friend Shalini Dam from whom I got this idea in the first place. A good way to use up leftover rotis, saves you the trouble of heating them up to go with the sabzi as well.

Ingredients Serving: 1

Chapatis: 2
Onions: 1 tbsp finely chopped
Capsicum: 1 tbsp finely chopped
Tomatoes: 1 tbsp finely chopped
Green chillies: finely chopped to taste
Cheese: 2 tbsp grated
Oil or butter: 1 tbsp
Chilli flakes
Mixed herbs

Instructions

Finely chop all ingredients mentioned, except for the chapatis and grate the cheese.
Heat oil in a non-stick pan and add the chopped ingredients except for the cheese. Add the chilli flakes and mixed herbs. If you dont have them, forget it.
Toss around on high heat till onions lose colour
Remove from fire
Place one chapati on the greasy pan and place the semi-cooked ingredients on it. Add the grated cheese and cover with the second chapati.
Lower heat and cook by pressing down on the melting cheese. This will ensure that the covering chapati sticks to the lower one.
After some time flip the quesidilla over and repeat process.
Remove from fire and recommended eating is with fingers as a fork just does not work and why bother with a knife? Just use your left hand to work the remote to change channels!
