Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Thinly slice the red onion. In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add 1/2 the red onion to the pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover the onion, then set aside. Finely chop the garlic. Grate the carrot. Drain and rinse the butter beans.

2

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the carrot and remaining onion, stirring, until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste and garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the butter beans, vegetable stock powder and the water and simmer, stirring, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Lightly mash the beans with a potato masher or fork. Season to taste.

3

Arrange the mini flourtortillas over a lined oven tray. Divide the bean mixture among the tortillas, spooning it onto one half of each tortilla, then top with the plant-based 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 with a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

4

Bake the quesadillas until the cheese has melted and the tortillas are golden, 10-12 minutes. Spoon any overflowing filling and cheese back into the quesadillas. TIP: Place a sheet of baking paper and a second oven tray on top of the quesadillas if they unfold during cooking.

5

While the quesadillas are baking, roughly chop the cucumber and parsley. In a medium bowl, combine a drizzle of olive oil and a splash of the pickling liquid. Season to taste, then add the cucumber, mixed salad leaves and 1/2 the parsley. Drain the pickled onion and add to the salad, tossing to combine.

6

Divide the garlicky butter bean quesadillas between plates. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley. Serve with the salad and plant-based aioli.
