In a bowl, combine corn flour, wheat flour, vegetable oil, baking powder, and salt. Mix until integrated and all lumps are dissolved. Gradually pour in the water until you obtain a homogeneous dough. Form small balls with the dough and flatten them with a tortilla press. Add a little cheese and fold the quesadilla, sealing it well, and repeat with the remaining dough. Fry the quesadillas in a pot with oil over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the quesadillas and place them on a plate with absorbent paper. Serve the cheese quesadillas on a flat plate and accompany with crushed salsa.
