Portobello mushroom mulitas

Mexico’s mulita is like a smaller, even more delicious quesadilla, fried in oil and sandwiched together rather than folded over. It almost always involves plenty of melted cheese. This version features juicy thick slices of portobello mushroom, spiced with paprika and enriched with a chipotle mayo and coriander butter.

How about a bowl of zesty sweetcorn salsa on the side?
