Corn capsicum Quesedillas are perfect to serve as quick after school snack or for an early dinner. The gooey cheese and the crunch from the sweet corn and capsicums make every bite delectable.
Make sure that these Quesedillas are served hot as soon as you prepare so that the filling and the tortillas don't loose the crispness and the texture
Mexican flavors are very close to our Indian spices and flavoring agents, so ideally you don't even need to hunt for special ingredients to make these melt in mouth Corn Quesedillas.
There are ready made tortillas available in the market these days which can be used to make these Quesedillas or even the Indian Flat bread (Fulkas) can also be used as the base for making.
You can experiment with various flavors when preparing the filling and try to make it as healthy as you want. The amount of cheese can also be as per your preference. In today's corn capsicum Quesedilla I have kept the filling very simple and have used diced mozzarella cheese to get the gooey effect .
Today's recipe makes use of ready made multigrain tortillas and for the filling I have used sweet corn , green bell pepper (capsicum) and red bell pepper.

VEGAN TAMALES / SWEET CORN KADUBU
Cooking food wrapped in leaves is an age old practice followed around the world. Cabbage leaves , Grape leaves and Colocasia leaves used for wrapping and steaming are consumed along with the dish . Turmeric leaves, jackfruit leaves and screw pine are also used in steaming different kinds of kadubus which are peeled and discarded before relishing the food. Elai Adai , Idlies and Kadubus acquire a pleasant aroma and retain moisture when banana leaves are either used as wraps or cups for steaming. Here is a steamed dish wrapped in corn husk which I relished during a visit to a farmer's market . I tried out a vegan version of Mexican Tamales using freshly ground Sweet Corn paste and stir fried vegetables . Since fresh corn becomes slightly watery when ground , I have used wheat flour to adjust the consistency of the batter. Besan , Rice flour , Maize flour or any other flour of your choice can also be used .

Fresh Corn Cobs - 2
Wheat flour - 2 tbsps or as required
Salt - 1/4 tsp
