Description
Crispy flour tortillas filled with a cheesy, mildly spiced vegetable mixture for a quick and flavorful fusion meal.
Ingredients
4 large flour tortillas
2 tbsp olive oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
1 zucchini, sliced into thin strips
1 tsp mild curry powder
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (or a mix)
Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add bell peppers, onion, and zucchini. Sauté for 5–6 minutes until tender.
Stir in curry powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove vegetables from skillet.
Wipe skillet clean and place one tortilla down. Sprinkle with cheese, add a layer of the vegetable mixture, then top with more cheese and a second tortilla.
Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
Slice into wedges, garnish with parsley or cilantro, and serve hot with sour cream, salsa, or chutney.
Notes
Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melting.
Cook over medium heat to avoid burning tortillas before cheese melts.
Avoid overstuffing to prevent filling from spilling out.
