Kimchi Quesadillas

In the mood to try something new? Well I was. My roommate Tater loves kimchi. She loves anything Asian, really. So I thought I would give kimchi a try. Tater was pretty stoked to hear I would make these for her. I came across this recipe from a buzzfeed post. [but it didn't have the list of ingredients. I found the list of ingredients on Serious Eats.] Since it was my first time to try kimchi, I figured this would be a good meal for the first time and I was right. They were definitely different. Kimchi has a vinegary taste, so that was transferred to the quesadillas, but I don't mind that. So, if you like kimchi or don't mind a tang, I would expand your horizons and give this a try. 

Ingredients

Yields 2

2 tablespoons butter

1 cup cabbage kimchi, drained and chopped

Green onions

2 (8-inch) flour tortillas

2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted

1 cup grated Sharp Cheddar

1 cup grated Monterey Jack

1 tablespoon Canola oil

Directions

Add butter into a medium heat pan and sauté kimchi until edges are golden brown. Divide these ingredients between two quesadillas: spread sautéed kimchi onto one side of tortillas, add cheese, toasted sesame seeds, and green onions. Add oil to pan and fry until golden then garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
