and homemade spelt tortillas, vegetarian, for an ovenproof pan or 26 cm springform pan

For the tortillas, mix the flour, salt, and pul biber (if you don’t like it spicy, just leave it out). Add the oil and gradually add the water. The amount of water can vary, so add it little by little. Knead well until the dough is no longer sticky and can be formed into a ball. Let it rest for 15 minutes. Then divide it into 6 small pieces and roll them out paper-thin on a floured surface. Fry in a pan without adding any fat on both sides until golden brown. Occasionally, wipe any burnt flour from the pan with a damp cloth. For the guacamole, place the tomatoes in a bowl, pour boiling water over them, and let it stand for 3 minutes. Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop out the skins. Mash with a potato masher or fork. Add the lemon juice, onion, and a chopped garlic clove. Peel the tomatoes, remove the green parts, and dice them. Add to the avocado and season with salt and pepper. For the dip, mix the quark, yogurt, herbs, and a chopped garlic clove; season with salt and pepper. Layer the mixture either in an ovenproof pan or a 26cm springform pan. First, place a tortilla inside. Spread some guacamole on top, then the soy mince, spring onions, and the torn cheese. Continue stacking until all the tortillas are used. Finish with a tortilla and spread only the cheese on top. Bake everything in a preheated oven at 160°C (convection oven) for about 30 minutes on the middle rack. After baking, remove from the pan or springform pan and slice like a cake. Serve with the dip. Delicious hot or cold.
