Cooking Steps

GET PREPPED
1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Cut the mini flour tortillas into wedges. Cut the red onion in half. Thinly slice 1/2 the onion, and finely chop the remainder. Finely chop the capsicum. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Drain and rinse the lentils. Drain the sweetcorn. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar, water (for the onion) and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch the sliced onion in your hands, then add to the pickling liquid. Set aside until serving.

MAKE THE SALSA
2

In a medium frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Add the sweetcorn and cook until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. While the corn is charring, finely chop the tomato and coriander (reserve some for garnish). Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. In a medium bowl, combine the tomato, coriander, baby spinach, charred corn and pickling liquid (1 tsp for 2 people / 2 tsp for 4 people). Season with salt and pepper.

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

BAKE THE TORTILLA CHIPS
3

Place the tortilla wedges in a single layer on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle (or spray) with olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and toss to coat. Bake until golden, 6-8 minutes.

TIP: If the tortilla wedges don't fit in one layer, spread them over two oven trays.

START THE LENTIL MIXTURE
4

SPICY! You may find the spice blend hot! Feel free to add less, depending on your taste. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the capsicum, carrot and chopped onion and cook until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the lentils and cook until tender, 2 minutes. Add the garlic and Mexican Fiesta spice blend (see ingredients list) and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

MAKE IT CHEESY
5

Stir through the tomato paste, butter, water and a pinch of salt and pepper. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes. Add another splash of water if the mixture seems dry. Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese over the lentil mixture, then cover with a lid or foil and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.

SERVE
6

Drain the pickled onion. Divide the tortilla chips between plates and serve with the cheesy lentil mixture, corn salsa, pickled onion, reserved coriander and sour cream.
