Roasted duck Quesadillas with mango salsa -9/2/09
Quesadilla is a Mexican snack food made with tortilla, a flatbread made with corn or flour, filled with cheese and grilled or cooked until the cheese is melted. Tortilla means "little cheesy thing". I made my Quesadillas a bit fancier but adding some left over roasted duck. The Mexicans usually eat their Quesadillas with salsa but again I wanted to step up a notch by making a mango salsa.
This is a really great snacks because the tortillas are crunchy, the cheese is oozing out and the roasted duck just added another layer of flavor and then when you add a scoop of mango salsa, it is just simply so delicious.

I made this dish a while ago at my Tapas party and everyone seems to enjoy it so I am creating it again tonight just for the 3 of us.
Preparation work..

Since I wanted this dish to be an appetizer, I took a whole flour tortilla and cut them into small circular size so it is easier to eat with your hands.

Adding the tortillas into an oiled hot pan |

Once the tortillas are browned, I am adding cheese and then roasted duck. |
Adding another layer of tortillas on top. |
Make sure to turn the heat to low if not you will burn the tortillas before the cheese is melting.
