    Add Schezwan, Worcestershire, vinegar, salt, pepper and mixed herbs. Toss 1 minute. Off heat — keep the filling crisp.

    For ENCHILADAS: spoon the filling along one edge of each tortilla and roll up. Place seam-down in a baking dish. Pour marinara on top, drizzle white sauce. Shower with cheese. Bake at 200°C for 12 minutes till the cheese melts.

    For QUESADILLAS: spread the filling on half of each tortilla, sprinkle cheese, fold over into a half-moon. Pan-fry in a hot dry tawa with a little oil for 90 seconds per side. Slice into wedges to serve.
