Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm wedges. Place the potato on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes. TIP: Cut the potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time.
While the wedges are roasting, drain the sweetcorn (see ingredients list). Finely chop the brown onion (see ingredients list). Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Finely chop the tomato. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Drain and rinse the red kidney beans (see ingredients list).
Heat a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the corn kernels and cook until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are "popping" out. Transfer to a bowl. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and cook until softened, 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Add the AllAmerican spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Add the grated carrot and red kidney beans to the frying pan and cook until softened and heated through, 2-3 minutes.
Add the tomato paste (see ingredients list), the water and crumbled beef stock and stir to combine. Add a dash of water if the sauce looks too thick. Reduce the heat to medium-low and sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese over the beef mixture. Cover with a lid or foil and cook until the cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
Divide the potato wedges and cheesy American beef between bowls. Top with the tomato, charred corn and a dollop of sour cream.
