Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. • Finely chop garlic. Grate carrot. • Drain sweetcorn. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to bowl.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are 'popping' out.

2

• Meanwhile, slice mini flourtortillas into quarters. • Divide tortillas between two lined oven trays (don’t worry if they overlap). • Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Bake until lightly golden and crispy, 8-10 minutes.

3

• Meanwhile, return pan to high heat. Cook diced bacon, breaking bacon up with a spoon, until just golden, 3-4 minutes. (No need for oil!) • Add pork mince and carrot and cook, breaking mince up with a spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic, Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

4

• Add the water to the beef and stir to combine. • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season with pepper. • Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until the cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.

TIP: don't simmer it for too long, you want it to be nice and saucy!

5

• While the cheese is melting, place the avocado (see ingredients) flesh in a small bowl and mash with a fork. Season to taste.

Little cooks: Help prep the avo!

6

• Divide the nacho chips between plates and top with the cheesy beef mixture. • Top with light sour cream, charred corn and avocado. Enjoy!

TIP: Serve the nacho chips on the side if you prefer! Little cooks: Have fun assembling the nachos!
