This is a Mediterranean-Mexican mashup. Dill adds a distinctive flavour, but leave it out if it’s not to your taste, or use fresh or dried mint instead. Bulk it up by serving with sweet potato wedges

Ingredients

  • 1 x 260g pack young spinach
  • 4 spring onions
  • 100g vegetarian feta, crumbled
  • 3 tsp chopped dill, optional
  • 1½ tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 2 handfuls of ripe tomatoes
  • tzatziki to serve

Step by step

  1. Cook the spinach until wilted, either in the microwave or in a large nonstick frying pan (which you can then cook the quesadillas in), then chop it roughly.
  2. Chop 3 spring onions quite finely and mash with the feta, 2 teaspoons of dill and 1⁄2 tablespoon of olive oil. Stir in the spinach and season to taste.
  3. Lay out 2 of the tortillas on a board and spread with the spinach-feta mixture. Top with the other 2 tortillas and press down.
  4. Dry-fry, one quesadilla at a time, in a large nonstick frying pan for 11⁄2-2 minutes each side over a medium heat until crisp, and golden in patches.
  5. Meanwhile, slice the tomatoes and toss with the rest of the dill, 1 tablespoon of oil, seasoning and the last spring onion, finely sliced.
  6. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with the tomato salad and some tzatziki.
