Ingredients
- Ground beef400 g
- Onion powder1 tsp
- Flour tortillas (medium)8 stk
- Shredded cheddar cheese200 g
- Pickles, finely diced2 tbsp
- Ketchup2 tbsp
- Yellow mustard1 tbsp
- Butter for frying1 tbsp
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat and stir in the onion powder, ketchup, and mustard.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the finely diced pickles. This gives the meat that authentic burger taste while keeping it moist for the quesadilla filling.
Lay out the tortillas. On one half of each tortilla, sprinkle a generous amount of cheese, followed by a layer of the beef mixture, and another sprinkle of cheese. Fold the tortilla in half.
Melt a little butter in a clean skillet over medium heat. Fry the folded tortillas for 2-3 minutes per side until the outside is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside has completely melted.
Cut each quesadilla into three triangles and serve immediately with a side of salad or extra dipping sauce. Perfect for eating with hands!
