Step 6

Flatten these balls with the palm of your hand.

Step 7

Take a portion of the dough, toss it on the flour and roll out into thin circles to approximately 6 inches in diameter.

Step 8

As you roll them out, you can keep tossing the dough in dry flour while rolling; this will prevent it from getting sticky when rolling them out.

Step 9

Cook the rolled dough as indicated in the steps below.

Step 10

Continue the process of rolling with the remaining portions of the dough.

Step 11

Preheat a cast iron skillet while we fill and prepare the quesadillas.

Step 20

Spread butter on one side of the large tortilla.

Step 21

With heat on medium, place the buttered side down on the skillet.

Step 22

Spoon over some 3 beans filling over one-half of the tortilla, leaving about 1/2 an inch space from the edge.

Step 23

Sprinkle some grated cheese over this filling.

Step 24

Fold over the empty half of the tortilla, covering the filling, making a semi-circular quesadilla.

Step 25

Heat this side until the bottom-surface develops deep golden-brown spots and the cheese melts. This would take about 2 to three minutes.
