Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. • Finely chop tomato and cucumber. Thinly slice onion (see ingredients). Grate carrot. Slice mini flour tortillas into wedges. • Arrange tortilla wedges over a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. • Bake for 6-8 minutes or until golden and crispy.
TIP: Keep an eye on the tortillas. You want them crisp, but not burnt!
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion, stirring, until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Drain excess oil from pan. • SPICY! The spice blend is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat. Add carrot and Mexican Fiesta spice blend and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and the water to the beef and stir to combine. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese (see ingredients) over the beef mixture, cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: Don't cook it for too long, you want the nachos to be nice and saucy!
• Meanwhile, combine tomato, cucumber and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Season to taste. • Divide tortilla chips between plates and top with Mexican-style beef mixture. • Top with tomato and cucumber. • Dollop with mayonnaise to serve. Enjoy!
