Select all ingredients

1/2 kilo of tortilla dough
2 cups of huitlacoche corn mushroom fresh or canned
2 bunches of squash blossom
300 grams of Oaxaca cheese
2 cloves of garlic
1/2 piece of onion chopped
2 spoonfuls of vegetable oil
to taste of black pepper to taste

Preparation

Start by preparing the filling. Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a medium-sized skillet.

Add half of the onion and garlic and brown for 2-3 minutes. Add the huitlacoche and cook for 5 minutes or until well cooked. Season with salt and pepper and pour into a deep dish.

Repeat the same process to make the pumpkin flower filling.

With a tortilla you have tortillas with tortilla dough.

Fill the tortillas with a bit of Oaxacan cheese and the filling of huitlacoche or pumpkin flower. Seal the quesadilla well with your fingers.

Cook the quesadillas either in a comal (if you want them without fat) or in oil if you prefer fried.

PRESENTATION

Serve hot quesadillas accompanied by a green or red sauce.

TIPS

If you can not buy dough for tortillas you can buy corn flour and make the dough at home.
