- Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium- high heat. Cook the garlic, spring onions and peppers for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the beef mince and cook for 5-10 minutes until brown.
- Stir in the tomato purée, chilli flakes, cumin, paprika and some salt and black pepper. Stir in the coriander.
- Place four tortillas on a chopping board and spread each one with the salsa. Top with the beef mixture, then sprinkle with the cheese. Top each one with another tortilla, press down and set aside.
- Heat one tablespoon of oil in a clean pan over a medium heat. Add one quesadilla and cook for 2-3 minutes. Flip onto a plate, then slide back into the pan and cook for a further 2-3 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the tortillas are golden and crisp.
- Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, adding more oil when necessary.
- Slice each quesadilla into quarters and serve immediately with sour cream and guacamole on the side.
