Qrazy Qrooked Quesadillas Part 2


So, here are the other 2 quesadillas I promised you yesterday. I hope you like them as much as my Qrazy Qrooked Quesadillas Part 1.

If you make my duck confit recipe, keep 100g back for the first quesadilla recipe below, and the costs for this dish will come down even lower than the £2 per serving that it currently stands at.

Last night's entertainments, with Mrs Ribeye and friends, involved a fair amount of vodka with Red Bull. So, please forgive me for not writing too much pre-recipe banter - I simply do not have the head for it (it seemed like a good idea at the time, though). Normal service will resume tomorrow.

Serves 4 (2 of each flavour, to share)

Duck Confit, Cranberry Sauce and Brie Quesadilla, with a Sweet Red Onion Marmalade Dip

Duck Confit, Cranberry Sauce and Brie Quesadilla

INGREDIENTS:

100g duck confit, shredded
100g brie, cut into 1cm dice
50g cranberry sauce
4 large tortilla wraps

Lay half the duck confit, followed by a sprinkling of half the cranberry sauce, followed by a scattering of half the brie, over one tortilla wrap, leaving a 5cm border. Lay another tortilla over the top and cook in a moderately hot dry frying pan, turning once, until both sides are golden and toasted and the filling is oozing. Repeat with the other quesadilla. Cut them into four quarters and serve with the sweet red onion marmalade dip.
