Quesadilla Crispers
- 1/4 pound fresh sausage (chorizo, Italian, etc.)
- 1 cup refried beans
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup diced canned green chilies, drained
- 1/4 pound jalapeño jack cheese, shredded (1-cup)
- 8 (7-inch) flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- Vegetable oil for frying*
Cook sausage until done, breaking it up as it cooks. Combine sausage, beans, onion, chilies, and cheese. Makes about 1 1/2 cups
Cut tortillas into quarters. Place about 1 teaspoon of bean mixture in center. Brush edges with mixture of flour and water. Fold in half and press to seal; keep covered as you work. Continue until all are made.
Let stand 5 minutes before frying to allow edges to stick together. Meanwhile, preheat oil in Presto® electric deep fryer. If using an adjustable thermostat deep fryer, set at 375°F. Deep fry three or four at a time for 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Alternate method: Cut tortillas into 8 pieces. Fry in hot oil. Heat bean dip and serve with fried chips.
