Lunch - Toasted Wrap

I firmly believe there is nothing more satisfying than gooey, melting cheese. Today is my last day on a short work week and so a long and relaxing lunch was in order before I tackled some housework.  It was very simple really:

All you need is a flour tortilla, a couple of slices of ham, sliced onion and grated cheese. I also slathered some English mustard on. Wrap it up tightly and fry it fold side down in a little olive oil for a few mins until nice and golden. Turn it over and let it get nice and golden. I find that if you keep the heat fairly low the cheese will be nicely melted!

Quesadillas

These are another quick dinner when you're rushing and lovely with a side salad.  All you need is a couple of flour tortillas and then you can add whatever you want. This week, I made mine with some Parma ham, grated cheese and red onion.  Sit your tortilla on a cold fry pan, no need to add oil, then add your ingredients, cheese first then scatter the ham and onion around, more cheese on top and a grinding of black pepper. Place the other tortilla and top and then sit it over a gentle heat. You want them between soft and very crispy. Turn it over once the bottom side is done, it should be nice and golden and repeat the process until both sides are cooked and the cheese is melted and gooey in the centre. 


These are nice for lunch as an alternative to sandwiches and you can add whatever you like to them really!
