Meanwhile, trim and finely slice the spring onion[s] and add them to a large mixing bowl

Grate the mature cheddar into the bowl, season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and mix thoroughly – this is your sweetcorn mixture

Once the kidney beans are beginning to break down, season with a generous pinch of salt and squeeze in the juice of 1/2 [1]lime

Divide the refried beans between 3 [6] of the tortilla wraps and spread them evenly over the tortillas with the back of a spoon
Top the refried beans with the sweetcorn mixture, pressing the mixture into the beans firmly with your hands
Top with the remainingtortillas and sandwich the filling in by pressing down firmly again – these are your quesadillas

Repeat until the last quesadilla is cooked, then remove the others from the oven
