Instructions

1. Melt the butter in a medium frying pan over medium heat.

When it’s sizzling, add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the dandelion greens all at once and cook until wilted, about 4 minutes.

Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir in grated cheeses. 2. Spread 2 to 3 tbsp of fi lling on one half of a tortilla and fold the other half over. Repeat until you’ve fi lled 8 tortillas and have used all the fi lling. 3. Heat a medium-sized frying pan over medium heat and brush with oil. Cook each quesadilla on one side until golden brown. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown and cheese has melted. 4. Keep cooked quesadillas warm in the oven at 200 degrees F, until they’re all cooked and you’re ready to serve. Cut each one in half before serving.

Great on their own or with a scoop of tomato salsa. 5. Makes 8 quesadillas, enough appetizers for 8 or supper for 4. HOMEMADE FLOUR TORTILLAS

Homemade tortillas freeze well. They can also be turned into thin crusts for pizza, or used as excellent tortilla chips. Just brush each side with oil, sprinkle with salt, cut into wedges and bake for about 6 minutes per side at 350 degrees F.

You’ll need 8 tortillas for the quesadilla recipe.

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose fl our • 1 tsp baking powder • 1 tsp salt • 6 tbsp olive oil • 1 cup water

Instructions

1. Whisk dry ingredients together and make a well in the centre.

Pour in oil and water. Stir until a shaggy dough has formed.

Transfer to a counter and knead until smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. 2. Divide into 16 equal pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball, fl atten with the palm of the hand and dust with fl our. Cover with a tea towel and let the balls of dough rest for 30 minutes.

This rest will allow the gluten to relax, making it much easier to roll out the dough. 3. Roll each piece to a thin round of about 8 inches; thin enough that the dough is almost transparent. Dust each round with fl our and stack on a large plate under a tea towel. 4. Heat a dry, cast-iron frying pan over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Have a second plate and tea towel ready for stacking the cooked tortillas.

Cook the tortillas on one side for about 1 minute, until a few brown spots appear on the underside. Flip and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. 5. Don’t worry if big air bubbles form, they will collapse as the tortilla cools under the tea towel. Remove each tortilla to the plate and cover as soon as it’s cooked. The stacked tortillas will create steam and keep from drying out or hardening.

Makes 16 8-inch tortillas. n TAROT CARD READINGS ASTROLOGICAL CHARTS & FORECASTS
