Quesadillas De Queso Camembert De Normandie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 flour tortillas (approximately 8-inch diameter) or 8 spelt tortillas (approximately 8-inch diameter)
    8 ounces camembert cheese
    Salsa
    1 cup granny smith apple, peeled, seeded and diced small
    1/2 cup red onion, diced small
    1/2 cup firm tomatoes, diced small
    1 tablespoon green jalapeno, minced
    3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced (NOT dried)
    1 tablespoon walnut oil
Preparation
    Wrap the Camembert in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 1 hour. Grate using a cheese grater. Set aside.
    TORTILLAS: Heat a 10\" non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle evenly with one quarter of the grated Camembert. Top with a second tortilla, pressing down gently. When nicely browned, flip the quesadilla over and brown the other side. Transfer to a warming plate.
    Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and Camembert.
    SALSA: Combine the apple, red onion, tomato, jalapeno and lime juice in a non-reactive bowl. Stir in the walnut oil and fresh basil.
    TO SERVE: Slice each quesadilla into quarters and arrange attractively on a serving platter with the salsa on the side.
