Ingredients
- 250g cheddar , grated
- 2 medium tomatoes , finely chopped
- 150g chorizo , finely chopped
- ½ small bunch of parsley , finely chopped
- 1 red chilli , finely chopped (deseeded if you prefer less heat)
- 6-8 spring onions , finely sliced
- 1 lime , juiced
- 8 large flour tortillas (see tip, below)
- lime wedges , to serve
Method
Heat the air fryer to 180C. Combine all the ingredients except the tortillas and lime in a bowl.
Spoon the filling onto one half of each tortilla, then fold over the other half and press down firmly. You want the filling to be near the edge but not falling out.
Put as many tortillas as you can into your air fryer in a single layer – it’s fine if they overlap a little. Put a spoon or heatproof utensil on top to stop the tortillas coming apart during cooking. Cook for about 10 mins, turning after 5 mins until golden and crisp at the edges. Serve with the lime wedges on the side.
