Cooking Steps

• SPICY! The spice blend is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook onion, celery and carrot, stirring, until softened, 5 minutes. • Add pulled pork and Mexican Fiesta spice blend, then cook until fragrant, 2 minutes. • Add tomato paste, the water and mild chipotle sauce, then stir to combine. Cook until heated through, 1 minute.

• Arrange mini flour tortillas over a lined oven tray. • Divide the pork mixture between tortillas, spooning it over one half of each tortilla, then top with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Fold the empty half of each tortilla over to enclose the filling and press down gently with a spatula. Brush or spray tortillas with a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. • Bake quesadillas until cheese has melted and the tortillas are golden, 10-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling back toward the quesadillas.• Arrange mini flourtortillas over a lined oven tray. • Divide the pork mixture between tortillas, spooning it over one half of each tortilla, then top with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Fold the empty half of each tortilla over to enclose the filling and press down gently with a spatula.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the tasty Mexican flavours, with some finding it spicier than expected and others wishing for more heat.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, with pre-cooked pulled pork saving time; great for novice cooks and busy families.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding the corn to the pork mixture for better integration; add fresh coriander or avocado to enhance flavour.
  • Portions: Some found it filling with leftovers, while others wished for more tortillas to match the amount of filling.
  • Texture: Pan-fry quesadillas instead of baking for a lighter, crispier result; consider chopping rather than grating carrots for more texture.
