 📝 Ingredients:

• 4 tortillas (or roti)
• ½ cup boiled sweet corn
• 1 cup grated cheese
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• ½ tsp chili flakes
• Salt to taste
• Butter or oil

📝 Ingredient Notes

•  🌽 Sweet Corn – Use boiled or steamed corn kernels. Fresh corn gives the best sweetness, but frozen corn works well too.
• 🧀 Cheese – Mozzarella is best for a stretchy, melty texture, while cheddar adds a stronger, richer flavor. You can also mix both.
• 🫓 Tortillas – Use soft flour tortillas. Fresh tortillas cook better and turn crispier without breaking.
• 🥄 Mayonnaise – Adds creaminess to the filling. You can adjust the quantity or replace it with cream cheese for a richer taste.
• 🌶️ Chili Flakes – Adjust spice level according to your taste. You can also add black pepper or chopped green chilies.
• 🧈 Butter – Use for cooking the quesadilla to get a golden, crispy texture and enhanced flavor.
• 🧂 Salt – Add carefully since cheese already contains salt. Taste before adding extra.
