Golden Gruyere and Basil Tortillas
by:    Bob Goldberg  
 
Golden Gruyère and Basil Tortillas Recipe places a flour tortilla in hot olive oil, adding Gruyere cheese, fresh basil leaves, salt and ground black pepper, topping with another tortilla and flipping to finish.


INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp olive oil
2 soft flour tortillas
4 oz Gruyère cheese, thinly sliced
a handful of fresh basil leaves
salt and ground black pepper


DIRECTIONS
1: Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add one of the tortillas, and heat through for 1 minute. Arrange the Gruyère cheese slices and basil leaves on top of the tortilla and season with salt and pepper.
 
2: Place the remaining tortilla on top to make a sandwich and flip the whole thing over with a metal spatula. Cook for a few minutes, until the underneath is golden.
 
3: Slide the tortilla sandwich on to a chopping board or plate and cut into wedges. Serve immediately.
 
4: Variation: These crisp tortillas make excellent snacks to share with friends on a night in. If you have a few slices of ham or salami in the refrigerator, add these to the tortillas - or simply prepare a mixture of the two to satisfy a range of palates.
