Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, saute the onion and potato until the potato starts to become tender. Add in the sausage and saute until it is cooked through.
  • Preheat a panini style grill.
    Alternatively use the nonstick pan to cook the quesadilla.
  • Spread the cheese onto the tortilla and top with chorizo mixture then fold the tortilla in half.
  • Cook the quesadilla on both sides to golden brown and the cheese has melted.
  • Cut into wedges. Serve with sour cream. Garnish with cilantro.

Notes

Pro Tip - watch the heat, don't be afraid to use a lower temperature so that the outside gradually comes to a golden brown while the cheese is melting.
