• 4 sheetsflour tortillas
• 1 canblack beans
• 2 cupscheddar jack
• 1 tspcumin
• 0.5 cupsalsa

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the flour tortillas completely dry — moisture is the enemy of crisp.

2. 2

   Dredge in black beans then cheddar jack, pressing so the coating grips.

3. 3

   Heat 2 inches of oil to 350°F and fry in small batches so the temperature holds.

4. 4

   Fry until deep golden and cooked through, then drain on a rack — never paper towels.

5. 5

   Season with salt the second it leaves the oil and serve Quesadilla with Black Beans hot.
