Quesadilla – Paneer & Cheese

Quesadilla(Prounouced as Kasadia) is a Mexican cuisine in which the tortilla(tortia) is filled with vegetables and cheese. Tortilla is a thin flatbread made from plain flour / wheat flour / corn flour in Mexico. If you are a non-vegetarian, you can also use meat as a stuffing. I am going to share the recipe for veg- paneer – cheese quesadilla. I came to know about this recipe from my younger brother. When he came for vacation, he made this recipe for us at home. It was so delicious and we all loved this dish. Later I learnt this recipe from my brother and made for my husband too. He too loved it and complimented my brother for introducing me to Mexican cuisine. His friends were also surprised to see a different dish.
